Ltx + StsNuMbNuTs670 11-29-2005, 07:38 PM I recently had a valve train failure( bottom end is damaged and valves bent) and was thinking about buying a low milage LT engine and dropping it in while i rebuild the motor during the next couple of years. Did all the LT corvette engines have 4 bolt mains and would the motor with a upgraded fueling system and tune hold 5-8PSI good?

LS1's are great engines and in bolt on form will obviosly make more hp than a bolt on lt1. Its also a more expensive engine. Once you build a boosted motor with a forged bottom end, ported heads, cam, etc...the benefit of an ls1 is tiny at best. Since hes wanting to run boost and in case hes on a budget, an ls1 might not be practical. Plus, iron block > Aluminum block in boosted applications. | ||
