Damn it Richard Stand up for your LT1 Vette.... may the lord have mercy if they run into yours

Basically if u can afford it get an LS1... Better intake system, better brakes, better engine design, better heads/cam stock.

As far as potential goes... when you add heads/cam to an LT1 it evens the playing field alittle more.. the gap closes some.
I have some heads on my LT1 from one of the notrious cz28.com head builders... I already put them on the engine but havent put the engine back in the car.

These heads/cam LT1's from AI or Lloyd routinely run high 11's-mid 12's depending on track conditions and trap 113-117 depending on supporting mods. were talking 93 octane, heads/cam/exhaust/TB/intake/decent tune. Some of those guys getting 400rwhp+ still used short tube headers or 91 california octane.
