Lt1 vs LS1
Lt1 vs LS1
My car, 96 z28, A4, 3.23's, loudmouth, slp shorty headers, stock y-pipe, fipk
Buddies car, 00 SS, A4, 3.23's.Has a cutout (was open as well)
Went from a couple speeds, but mostly from a 45-50 roll. We were about dead even from 45-100, stopping at 100. I think had we gone a bit further he would have put a car on me. We are waiting until we can hit the dragstrip to find out my real gains. Just thought I would share

Way to justify your LT1.
HP is HP, torque is torque and a stock LS1 has more of both than your car...even if you are racing up a hill.
Re: Lt1 vs LS1
from the get go any lt1 has always beaten an ls1 ive ever seen
from all the tracks, my brother races his sister all the time...
lt1 vs ls1 lt1 will always win off the line, and also will win on a very steady incline...
and i donno about arazona but around here its not flat by any means, and on a 30% grade hill, the lt1 will do beter
im just saying what ive noticed from around here, the cars ive raced and the races ive been a passenger in...
you may race on flat lands but i race on the streets given to me... and thats part of the race, curves and up hill down hill

See, i disagree. I believe the LS1, will do slightly better versus a LT1 racing up the side of Mount Everest. However, maybe if they were racing on, say a Mount Vesuivus, the LT1 may have the advantage. We need to get a drag strip, right up the side on Mt. St. Helens, and we will really see which engine shines
Re: Lt1 vs LS1
damn my delete key doesnt work on this site for some reason...
ohh well thats besides the point... im just saying what ive seen, ive got my *** handed to me and im not afraid to admit that, im just saying what ive seen... I know my buddys lt1 will pull on the first half of the 1/4 mile on his sisters ls1... but then he gets handed... but i know from experiance that ive beaten one SS up hill, and ive stayed even with a C5... but ive lost a plenty of times to vettes and ls1's
anyhow atleast i dont just race in a straight line
certainly my buddy's best run is 14.0 (headers & exhaust, ram air, torque converter, and shift kit)
and his sisters is 13.3 (just exhaust)so i know the ls1 is faster thats not exactly what ive been talking about but... i suppose maybe i went off topic

Up a hill, down a hill, a stock LS1 is still MUCH faster/quicker than a stock LT1. My bone stock LS1 ran .9 and 8 mph faster than my stock LT1 did. This argument is played out and what you're making really makes zero sense.
