LS1 vs LT1
#81
not all LS1 guys are like that, just some. plenty of LS1 guys are cool as hell and give props no matter what. ive caught my fair share of **** from posting kills that shouldnt have happened, just recently even. every type of car has those people. imports, mustangs, sadly F-bodys too.

i personally prefer the LT1 over the ls1 (yes owned one, 2000 TA and just sold it)
i absolutely loathe the sound of it with open headers.
but, it is a good, strong motor over all, and works with mods very, very well.
to each his own, but i cant stand jags who think they have the end all of motors.

haha thanks for the props.
its a cool motor, as for the sound, everyone has an opinion, and im sure it verys car to car on sound, depending on cam and headers and mufflers.
i just see a ton more built LS1's around me because the parts are so widely available and very greatly in whats available.

I can't wait to cam my car. But, I'll be running some Pacesetter LT's, true duals without cats before I cam it. I'm not really sure what mufflers I'm going to run. I was thinking about maybe getting some Flowmaster 10 series mufflers for it or some 40 series to quiet it down a little. The universal x-pipe kit that I'm going to get has dual cutouts for when I want an ungodly loud exhaust note anyways.

I know man. I love it. Im a diehard LT guy. Have had 3. But i know LS Engine is the SH*t. I love the power they put out. But right now i love the power im putting out too
#91
good idea keeping the thing quiet when you need to. mines not driven that much anymore (well when it comes back from the body kit and paint) so i dont worry about it too much, but if i could go back and do it again, long tubes and cut outs.

Agreed. I just dumped my crap mid lenths added some coated LT pacesetter with a cut out. and MUCH MUCH better
#94
i hear yah man. ive had them both, and personally just liked the LT1 better. with a very small cam (max lift 462) and a set of headers, tune and cold air i was even with LS1 cars, and im a damn convertible. match your parts right and you make some good power.
#97
I've also heard that LT1's can sound better, I guess a deeper sound. Anyways why are you running short tubes?? I would think that with all of that power you would need long tubes.
#98
I'm pretty sure I'm going to go with a CC305 112lsa with 1.6rr's. But, I found a Lunati cam the other night that is also pretty tempting that's also a little bigger than the CC305. It seems kind of like a happy medium between the CC305 and CC306.

i would love long tubes but my DS safety loop comes out at a funny angle (reinforcements on it for safety) and it would be a difficult, cluttered set up.
lose some power sure, but worth it for ease of exhaust maintenace (cat insert/detele, muffler insert/delete.)
it does in my opinion have a deeper sound.
