Prowler is an unknown quantity at this point

95 LT1 - $6500
'00 LS1 - $14000

That's what is available here and the prices. For $7500 I'll have a rebuilt/new engine and a whole lot more power than buying a 5th gen.

Same thing as why to buy a used '00 Si for $10,000 instead of a new Si for $19,000.

Yes, you may be able to get your car into the nines, but I highly doubt you're going to be able to drive that car home exactly how you ran it down the track legally. Furthermore, you're going to spend an assload of cash getting there.

Where as we could search for and more than likely find hundreds of 9 second LT1s and LS1s with less than 5 grand in modifications total.
A nine second LT1 or LS1 would be just as street legal as a 9 second honda, PERIOD. As for putting 5 grand one of those cars to get it into the 9's very doubtful. 10-11's is easy getting into the 9's consistantly and reliably is another! I think this thread has gotten out of hand and no longer is to the point of what is was meant for. Lshatch916 said a common idea get the car with more horspower than the other, its easier to make it faster or just leave it alone as its fast enough already.

LShatch did make a pricing comment... and then proceeded to tell me

give me all the money he spent on car plus mods and ill do 9's and take u out to eat filet migion.
Basically I told Prowler that an LT1 is cheaper, but buying a more expensive LS1 is the better way to go in his eyes.

I told Prowler if he can find an LT1 Z28 for a good price in decent shape then GET IT.

Seriously, from the kids who can't construct basic sentences to form logical thoughts, you provide just about the worse arguement possible.


Of course the LS1 is better than the LT1, no one ever said it wasn't. People simply pointed out to you, in your ignorance, that the LT1 can be a very good engine. Its a very strong engine and has more power and displacement than any stock Honda engine. The LT1's sell for so cheap, that its almost idiotic not to buy one at a bargain price if you plan on rebuilding/modding the engine.

Ok look, for the money that your gonna spend to get in the 13-12 second range, why not buy the LS1 thats already there, but thats just a matter of opinion, but if he's not gonna mod it than buy the LT1 then. Fuck it! Do whatever! Its not that serious. I thought that this had been settled with the whole "agree to disagree" thing?

Are u serious???? You come to a honda forum and get mad cause some think higher of an NSX or a Supra than a Corvette? Would you have felt better if i threw in a Skyline or an S15 or S14? Fuck people calm down! People in this get all hyped up if u have a different opinion than theirs. Shit...its a fucking joke asshole calm down.

DOn't get a 93, as they were the first year for that body style so they have a good amount of problems. My buddy just threw around 1500 bucks to get all the electricAL PROBLEMS "FIXED" and it still has a hard time starting...

he has had
3 fuel pumps
2 new ecus because a shorted wire kept frying them
leaky transmission pan
still has
small oil leak
hard time starting. It's something with the fuel pressure.
The car only has 77k miles on it.
And it's a pig on gas.

He lifted the car to get under it with a jack and the door looks misaligned. Yes he did lifted at the right lift point.

I ALREADY EXPLAINED THAT!!!!!! :P

The price difference from buying a 93-97 LT1 to buying a 98-02 LS1 is going to me MORE than what he's going to spend on the LT1 to put it into the 12s.

Why is this hard to figure out?

oh and ksrCivic;
