I sold my 94, and I am looking into getting a LS1 (M6) to replace it in the next couple months. I will probably stay in between 98 and 2000, I would like an SS ( I like the hood and the spoiler), but I also want to tweek it, so I think a Z28 may be better for my wants... but that aside, my question is, the technical differances... I have read on a couple differant web pages about the minor details, but is there an overwhelming reason to get a 2000 over a 98?

 

Go for a 2001+.....enough said. Anybody wanna back me up on this?

 

Yep

be aware that the thermometer meter on the newer LS1's are just dummy lights. Only crappy thing

 

98 99 00 are preety much all the same

if i were to get one id get a 98

they have ****** fuel injectors


01 02 is the way to go

or get a cheap 98 and with the cash u saved get some mods

 

Yep, '01,'02. I've been saving the standard list:

LS6 intake manifold
No EGR
smaller, cam (truck cam)- better for low end torque
coil packs replaced with rail set-up variety
Z06 clutch parts
slightly larger fuel injectors
revised rings to fix oil consumption
bolt on y-pipe vs weld
power steering oil cooler standard
lighter plastic gas tank
maybe even an LS6 block

 

Shoot, that is what I thought... I was thinking 98 then mods, but I like some of the things on the 01,02... Could I use a 01/02 y-pipe on a 98?
