It’s awful strange how an LT1 can now have a 300lb lighter shipping weight than an LS1. Never seen an iron block motor get so much lighter than an aluminum version! What is driving these sweeping changes across so many vehicles? I’m assuming there are some whiners that got in the ears of decision makers and now it’s affecting a whole lot of racers for no good reason.
