After years of owning my 93z and how much money i needed to drop into it to keep up with a stock ls1 yet alone how much more money i dropped into it to beat one i would recommed tthe ls1. buy a 98 with low miles for under 10 and mod the last 5k. also when you buy an old lt1 you take the risk of buying someone elses problems. just my $.02

Give me almost any Lt1 and $6K extra and I can make it run way better than an Ls1 for $12K.
The other trick is financing. The newer the car, the more conventional the financing. That means less money for interest (depending on your credit). Then again, you might be able to pick up an Lt1 for cash...
Regardless, if I was starting from scratch, I'd probably look for the best deal I could find on an Ls1. It'll cost more, but you can use all the new toys that folks are developing for the engine. Third party Lt1 development continues, but at a much lower level than Ls1 development.

[QUOTE=TonyJ]Sorry, that logic doesn't work... If you buy a used Ls1 you risk buying someones problems, as well.
What I should have said is that when you buy ANY car used you risk buying someone elses problems. Sorry about that mix up tony
