No videos, no dyno graphs, I made it all up.
I thought so...
What's up with all this underdog bullcrap? I've been seeing it alot from the lt1 owners on this site. Who cares! The lt1 is a good motor.

Just asked for a video no need to get offended. This site use to be cool but they are starting to be alot of cupcakes here!

They just use the underdog term for an excuse. If they get there *** cleaned they say well it's a 15 year old motor.

It's an underdog b/c it's a 17y.o. motor...those two go hand-in-hand. Your logic fails me.

His logic: LT1 wins = brag because it's a pathetic motor. LT1 loses = they can still say well it's a 17 year old motor so what do you expect?

Real Logic: If someone loses they're full of nothing but excuses, regardless of car/engine/driver/sun in the eyes.

The reality of it is that LT1's were great for their time, now they are behind b/c technology is an awesome thing. He must have run into some toolbags who can't take a loss. Other than that I hold onto mine b/c it gets underestimated, and go-fast parts are cheap.

They are still great motors. Love the exhaust note over the ls1 that's for sure!
Technology for motors are getting better but they are just some motors that were built really well. Domestic and import that hold preety well.

Maybe you would maybe you wouldnt.Won't get butthurt about.
If I lost maybe I can use you're excuse that it has a 24 year old motor and probably paid less than what you got and did to your car.
