OK, Need Some Help Ok, im doing a project on the LT1 vs LS1, if anyone could show me some articles that would explain both engines very well and show some good figures or show me some research that you yourself may have done concerning this. It would be awesome to show some comparisions done by a magazine or something. Thanks a lot. Also dyno charts would be great BUT you must list all the mods done to the engine (not suspension) AND the price, also you must show me stock numbers and the new numbers. Thanks a bunch. (doesnt matter if its LT1 or LS1 numbers)
Diagrams are needed the most
Diagrams are needed the most
in 100 words or less:
lt1's have a shorter stroke and larger bore, most of its power is at a much lower rpm than an ls1, they can be made damn fast but not necessarliy the same way an ls1 can be made damn fast. weak points: shitty *** ingition system until 95??? (opti-spark) heavier (iron block) strong points: good tire roasting torque from the bottom of the tach
ls1's have the juice up top, longer stroke smaller bore, again can be made damn fast but not necessarliy the same way an lt1 would. strong points: 4000rpm-6000rpm, individual coil packs, lighter (aluminum block) weak points: err. . . jk pushrods
iv never owned or even worked on an lt1, all the info above is merely **** i have ramdomly picked up, so im sure some of it is wrong, dont flame me for it, just correct me.
