Maybe you forgot that the LS1 is superior to the LT1 in every way. Longevity, fuel efficiency, torque, horsepower, ,response to modifications, potential.
Yeah, I have no doubt that there are some LT1's that can walk my car, but there are also some Honda Civics that started off with 120HP that can walk my car now. You make the car a money pit and it can beat almost anything, but mod for mod an LS1 will always beat an LT1. Now go rub your sore butt.

Superiorly is not a word, by the way.

That's like a new Coyote GT owner or me with my new 6.4L MOPAR calling your LS1 inferior. You're comical to say the least noobie.

And my LS1 is inferior to a lot of engines, the Coyote motor is a beast compared to mine, so is the LS3. They replaced the LT1 with the LS1 because it was better and faster, did that ever cross your mind?

It's really no secret that the LS1 is superior and has more potential. LS1's have touched 7's, that I know of, possibly lower.

Solely based on the fact you have "Bilstein shocks" posted in your sig makes me aware of what I'm dealing with here. I hope their at least Re-valved. Damn high school kids and their LS Wons

Anyway, what an engine can do stock means nothing when it comes to how fast the car does or doesn't go. Look at a standard SBC or BBC. They were replaced, yet none of the current engines can touch what those engines have accomplished at the track.

More often than not, in my own personal experience, modded LTX guys have spent less money to hit 10's and 11's than modded LSX guys (this also includes the purchase prices of the car).

Talk about butt hurt. Every time an LS1 loses a race, all you hear is either "if the LSWONDER would have had this or this mod" or "that guy must have spent so much money, definitely not worth it"

The only point I'm trying to make is that the LS1 is a superior engine, the end, stop getting butt hurt.
What's wrong with listing Bilstein shocks? It's merited me a few PM's asking how I like them, helping out fellow F-body owners with my experiences, without listing it they wouldn't have asked me.

You know what I change my mind the ltx was by far the best engine ever built by gm. They took a massive step backwards when they built the ls1 that weak pos. The aluminum block doesn't even make a good boat anchor.

I came into the conversation when someone mentioned a bolt-on LT1 being a 13-second car, as if implying that 12's weren't possible. Then you chime your noobie *** in and claim the LT1 owners are butt-hurt. Then I had to explain to you that I don't own an LT1...then your conversation began to jump all over the place, turning into an LS1 vs. LT1 debate, which wasn't what the original debate was about. Typical noobie move. And about the whole butt-hurt comments, I bought my first LS1 when they were still sitting on the showroom. Get a clue man.
