LS-1 or LT-1

hamlinmotorsports · 04-12-2009, 04:43 PM

im just trying to get some feedback on what would be the better route to take an lt1 or ls1 for stock eliminat. Like cost, maint. and labor.

i also have a 1970 nova that im considering to run in (A/B/C) stock so im stuck with 3 options on which on to do so some feedback would be greatly apprecitated

what would be my best option cost wise?
what car and engine package would be better for the classes i want to run?

Well I don't know about the Nova, but Lt-1 should definitely be cheaper than an LS-1.

I'm not sure which one has been factored the hardest. Both have been hit pretty hard. I agree, the LT1 would be cheaper to build.

I've been to 4 div. 2 races & the gators this yr. We have a 375 hp 69 nova that looked pretty good until they put the injected cars back with us. I can tell you for sure, if you wont to run a/sa run the lS1, b or c run the lT1, take the nova to a car show. The lT1 will be the cheapest.
