yeah 97 basically has a LS cars interior with a LT1 engine. I have nothing against a LT or a TPI but the LS definatly makes more power and it much more receptive to mods

LT1's are faster than LS1's mod for mod. They have more bottom end torque and better feel from the driverseat. It's really a shame they didn't drop one into the new Corvette ZR1.

*I read all of this somewhere on the internet so I take it to be true.
