    Default ruining the LT1 name

    I hate that GM is using the LT name once again, especially on an engine that has nothing in common with our LTs. It's just an LS3 with direct port injection.

    Well not to rain on your parade but the LT1 in your car isn't the first name of its kind

    correct, the first LT-1 was in the early 70's and was a great motor. seems that GM uses the LT1 code for there best engines.

    agree GM uses the LT name on the hardcore platforms

    And the new LT shares nothing with the LS3 other then the wrist pins. total different block configuration and head design. the valves are reversed and. different head bolt sizes and layout. its basically a whole new motor.

    I thought the new LT had more in common with the LS than that. One thing is for sure, it has nothing in common with the standard small block LT1.

    according to GM... the New LT1, is 90% new..... with little in common with any of its predecessors.
