God forbid junkyard hacks ever just unplug a harness...

So who is taking their UZA70 to Las Vegas in a month? I would like to see one. Anybody?

In my experience many do. That is how I know the V160 was 5600 in parts, and an A340E was 4500. They are called Camry and 4Runner owners, and they exist in great numbers. It is the enthusiast market that goes cheap.

Yep. They are tuned to produce max torque down low, not max torque on top.

In 2000 that German trans retailed in Toyota pricing at $5600 new. Just don't do the swap thinking it won't ever break.

Work was done a few years back on an IS430 with a blower too. Never came though.

I think it is a great engine. Actually, it has been that way since the beginning of time, and will never change. The bigger the pump, the more it can move. You can improve eficency of any pump. All else being equal, the larger pump will move more air. And boost is artificial displacement.

Yep. We would probably still use it if it wasn't for birth defects and feedback controll.

And that is reduced to the lowest common denomator as Torque x RPM/5252. Correct?

And I see different, time and time again. Believe what you want. All LS1 engines make exactly 310rwhp or whatever that may be.

The LS and SC have different transmissions. Well, the first ones did. And they both can be improved in the valve body by doing a small modification. Have you checked for any trans DTC's?

Hard is a relative term. Without driving it, nobody can even determine if there is a defect. Does the difficulty go away as the car warms?

http://www.ls1tech.com/forums/showthread.php?t=213148 A very good FAQ and general information somebody put together. The 01 and newer is noticably stronger than the 97-00, as pointed out in the other thread.

Blah Blah blah? I accept your surrender. The "first gen" LS1 was strong. The second one was stronger. All aluminum V8 that puts out the same power? Not in the US. Ford chose to use smaller natually aspirated displacement with the rest of the dispalcement unaturally aspirated. I think the LS1...

I don't agree. All stock by some of them are 'Lid, Maf, chipped, exhaust, pulleys' etc. In other words, if you haven't ported the head, changed the cam added a power adder, it is still stock. Hell, why not split hairs over 7%. And the SS has that low restriction exhaust and high flow intake...

In the intrest of not hijacking tghe thread anymore than it was, I won't add anymore to that.

I don't think so. Over the years, a lot of garbage builds up.

http://gmhightechperformance.com/tech/0311htp_projls1/ I would say that is pretty typical. A monkey could put that car deep in the 13's bone stock.

The LS1 had a change in '00 or '01. I have seen plenty of dynos that were 265-280 rwhp, which was a big jump over the LT1. In GM performance mags on a dynojet. The year it switched to a 5 hp jump, they were pretty consistent to 300 rwhp. From what I remember. Either way pretty darn good. One...

Is it random or does it happen when you acclerate? Those are different. Accerlation could be driveshaft. Often a driveshaft that needs to be rephased, or retimed if you will, will vibrate with accleration or deceleration only. You would have to have removed a shaft or u-joints to get this...
