Lots. But there's a reason at the track you see crates over lss.

I disagree.

You can disagree all you want.

Doesn't make you any less wrong.

dude i see a **** ton of ls1s at englishtown

[atomicbadgerman]

I see far more LS swaps in chevy/RX's/miata's than anything else at the track.

Sure you can make huge numbers with a 350 easy. You're also adding hundreds of pounds with an absurd cast iron block.

Fast car has more to it than just HP/Tq numbers.

not to mention, smog laws and overall efficiency.

You arn't going to hit 700hp with any zz crate engine small block without a plate.

maybe he is referring to the dodge camero

The LS is attractive because, though its more expensive for parts over a gen 1&2, getting over 550hp and 20+mpg at the same time is easy. Bolt a carb on it and instantly add 20hp or more though

97+ corvette

98+ in camaro

Close though

[yuik (Banned)]

why the **** would you carb an ls1?

[atomicbadgerman]

This thread is so absolutely full of stupid.

[kfresh]

if you are swapping an old car, a custom built top of the line 1000 dollar carb will work very well. it will cost you 5k to put even a marginal EFI system on those cars, and 8-10k for top of the line stuff.

Wouldn't you still need to upgrade the fuel lines and fuel pump and **** or no ?

I never owned a carb car

[kfresh]

You would have to do all of that with a EFI setup a well?

[viper0687]

I've had guys put carbs on simply because they understand it better than efi.
