Exactly - same power with less milage and usually less driveability. Why not keep the EFI (since most used LS1s come with the harness and PCM already) and just spend some time cutting up the wiring harness yourself?
If I ever decided to buy an LS1, I sure as hell wouldn't slap a carb on it.

the carb manifold makes about 100 more hp then the ls6 manifod and fuel injection... using that manifold would also take care of the ignition and i wouldnt need to deal with a wire harness and computer...
driveablity isnt a factor at all...my car is insured for limited mileage...
i am just going to stick to a gen 1 small block so i can keep my transmission...
