I would also go with a ls1. I have owned both the lt1 and ls1 and prefer the ls1.

LS1. It's new, more reliable, more powerfull, and simply put better in essentially every way possible. Nothing against the LT1, but why not get the newest/best you can afford? Besides, used LS1's aren't all that expensive.

I'd rather have a stock LS1 than a lightly modded LT1.

I like lt1's and almost bought one, but I'm glad I ended up with the ol ls1. By the time you put enough money into the lt1 to catch up with the ls1, you'll have spent more...then your optispark will go out.
