yeah and he has like 30 grand and a binder full of reciepts into that car....motor probably costing over 10k to begin with.
its not unheard of to see ls1 motors pulling street duty and still running 9 seconds all motor. bill uses the laughing gas 
the point is. the ls1 isnt dying at all. you guys wish it would and its not going anywhere. as for it being the 327 of its day...im pretty sure that would be the lt1. produced in limited numbers, for a few limited years and has a small following but there are obviously better choices for the same bucks

Um, how?
Last time I checked the GenIIs are real 350s... And better choices? You show me a stock SBC that has stock heads flowing better than LT1 heads...

Still a great motor, still makes tons of power, but I would not be surprised if we see fewer new parts being made. LT1's are probably even worse off. But that's the progression of technology. Gen I's are only doing OK because there are millions of them out there around the world. Gen II and Gen III motors were only really in F-bodies, Corvettes, and GTOs for 6 years each. Not a lot of them floating around. The Gen I was installed in production motors from 55 until I think 2005. 50 years of production, in everything from Bel Airs to panel trucks.

Eh, I think there is now a company making stock LT1 shortblocks for under 1500. Not saying that the market is rocketing, but theres still a heartbeat there.

I'm not saying that there is NOTHING there, and NOTHING being developed. I just think things will start to fall off, even if slowly and slightly.

Yup agreed, most of the guys that were pushing the envelope with technology etc have moved onto the LSX stuff.

And the cost to build a 9 second Z06 is so much cheaper? Last I looked the car is still a good chunk of change.

Gee, sounds like you could be describing the LS1 – which last I looked was only found in comparatively low production cars over a few years – Vettes, F-Bodies and early GTOs. If I were building a gen III/IV engine from scratch, I’m sure not starting with an LS1.
Do you have any good points?  I feel like Tsar.

And you convert GenI heads to work on LT1s, so therefore LT1s win.

I still remember back in the day when I had my full bolt on / 373's 97 LT1 and raced my buddys brand new 99 A4 SS...I held him off for awhile from a dig then around 80 bye bye LS1 to the tune of 2 cars real quick  ...damn that was a bitter pill to swallow then.
