LT1's are very strong engines and are much cheaper than LS1's. Plus parts are pretty cheap. Go with the LT1.

thanks for the help... i know this is random as hell but im going fishing tommorow and i was wondering what would be better for catfish liver or just worms

Advice on engine choices still welcome

I'm with the other guy, you should go with an LT1, great motors, I had one in my '79 Chevy at one point in time, but decided to revert back to my original 350 and build it up for a mud truck. Catfish around here don't like worms, they're more into liver, but what I use is peanut butter and corn (They seem to love it), put that in one of those things chicks wear, and you should be good (the things they were on their legs, they look see through.)

O love 240zs....

But 510s are even sexier

go with the LT1 and try to get something like a Mezeire electric water pump so it doesnt leak onto your opti
