Re: LT-1 vs. LS-1

LT1 and LS1 Torque is THE SAME, just that it comes up lower in the RPM band on the LT1, which might be an advantage I don't know, but the LS1 has a more steady power increase and better top-end, thus the higher HP rating and higher traps. But like said, the LT1 can most likely take a lot more punishment, if you were to go FI I'd definitely pick an LT1. Also, parts for LTs are cheaper, and so it will be a cheaper engine to build up. Also, correct me if I am wrong but if you build an LT1 to the same power as an LS! won't it perfrom better due to that Torque showing up earlier.
