Oops! You forgot the $2k premium on a LT1 over a 94-95 GT. Jump up to an LS1 and you will at least double the cost of the GT.One Wicked SVT said:by all means, buy a LS1.
215pee-wee horsepower + $3k in mods to still lose... or win off the bat.
Your choice.
LS1's with a LID and very cheap bolt ons net 12's without a flinch.
Personally, I dont like them.

Dollar for dollar you could mod the sh1t out of a GT and blow any stock LS1 away.
Ok, let's clear the fog with facts. A 98' SS books at $9,900 (private party, more like $12,200 from a dealer - check Edmunds). That's the first year the LS1 was available in the Camero.One Wicked SVT said:Dollar for DOLLAR in the LONG RUN... the LS1 is still ahead.
GRGT1994 said:That's all I was saying. Sure the LS1 has a far higher buildout potential. But a drunken monkey could tell you that (350 ci > 302 ci).
GRGT1994 said:By the way, keep in mind that these book prices are not real world prices. GM sold FAR fewer F bodies than Mustangs that Ford pounded out (partly because they built a car that only a hard core car nut could stomach, let alone love). So you will have to look farther and harder to find a nice SS, compared to even the effort it would take to find a quality Mustang, even 3 years older.
_JB_ said:$3800 seems low for a 95 GT. The only ones around here for that price at the 6 bangers (SN95 style).
Do a cam swap in that same LS1 and you better believe you are mid 11's with D/R's.
Not for nothing but you port the heads on the LS1, do a cam swap and get some D/Rs and the damn car will dyno close to 450rwhp.

I know I'm not exaggering like crazy. Everything I have said is what I have gathered in the last few months on F-bods. I'm not prefect, but I hope that statement doesn't apply to me.and you have the F body suggestors who dont know **** either and are exaggerating what it will actually do.
_JB_ said:The temp is real in 98 also.

95snoozer said:yes, how about 2 roomates heads cam
one m6 onewith 4.10s one stalled a4 with a 4400 stalled daily driver.
several close friends with heads cam vettes, heads cam stroker, 427s, ehads cam all bore hybrid s200 swap, heads cam blower rap loads of cam only cars, cam and bottle cars.
pretty much everyone of my friends drives an f body with at least LT full exhaust i know their cars better than them and can drive them better (m6).
i spend as much time on ls1tech camaroz28 ls2 ls1.com(in the past) as i do here and corral.
you are exaggerating like crazy.
