LS1 vs. LS2
I'm looking for some advice on picking an engine for my 1968 Camaro. I'm trying to decided between a used LS-1 (with T-56) or a new LS-2. Should I stick with the LS1 because it's been out for a while or jump to the new LS-2?
Which LS-1 engine is best suited for my application? If you could choose the donor year and type?
And finally, are LS-1 transmissions compatable with the LS-2?
Thanks!!

04-04-2005 #2In general I would stay away from the LS2 for now... there is just not enough known about the engines and how they will behave at this point to justify the cost and PITA of working with one. Wait a year and stuff will get cheap.
1971 Camaro, 383 stroker ~500HP,M21 Trans with lightened flywheel. All Sorts of Auto-x Goodness in the Suspension. 12" Brakes ->SOLD
But ask me about my 2004 STi Auto-x car...
Just call me Brett
