Just having all that upgraded on my car cost a ton...

oh and you get the ZL1 fuel pump too (well so do the 2014 SS Camaro's I think)..
Agreed, about the base for modding, it was the drive train loss specific to 1LEs I was wondering about. Yes EPS will save a few HP. The different gearing also may have a slight impact on the dyno numbers. But sadly the 1LEs are no faster than any other stock LS3 on a drag strip. And perhaps a bit slower due to the tracking focus of the suspension and tires.
