Not that you boys really care but the new LS1's get great gas mileage. I get well over 300 kilometers per tank of fast driving. They are rated up to 35 miles per gallon.

only fourth gens not second gens! yeah the car is the same frame/cab. the only difference is the front clip. you need the bumper,bumper cover, headlights,headlight motors(firebird), fenders, and hood. three hours later youve swapped!

i got the ls1 front clip sitting in my garage right now

the only major difference between the years are
98 had larger injectors buy 2 sizes than 99-01 and changed them back in 02 or 01, i think. 98-00 have a bigger cam for more higher rpm hp. 01-02 has the 5.3 truck cam for more low end torque but less hp. 01-02 has the ls6 intake stock. 00 and newer has a better clutch. 00 has the new style exhaust manifolds.

they will supposivly change the master and the slave for the clutch if still under warranty as the 98 and 99 ones are a pos. i wish i woulda known that when my car was still under warranty cause the clutch is ****ed up now. happened to my car the first time a couple weeks ago at 50000 km. i guess it took them 2 years to get people with around 50000+ km on them to bring them back windering why the clutch pedal is sticking or the clutch won't disengage/engage properly.

You shoulda bought my 93, I am in the process of selling it for 6000USD, if it falls through I'll let you know. It has a few mods its pretty fast for an LT1. My 93 is actually where that phrase comes from

If I was going to buy another LT1 it would be a 95 single cat 6spd and NOTHING ELSE. If I found the PERFECT 93 ( I like SD and cheap!) or 97 (new interior) I MIGHT think about it
