Well, well, well. LSA? LS9? I imagine 98% of the driving experience would be very similar. A little stomp here, a stomp there. A little highway 50- 120 romp. Probably 2%of the buyers will be hardcore racers, switching out tires, etc. Truthfully! I imagine you might even find an LS9 driver slightly behind an LSA driver simply because of tire spin, balk at the start, whatever......... Just imagine. An original LS1 from 1969 could easily find itself with a poor hole shot as a 302 Z28 is 4-5 cars ahead out of the shoot! Again, no arguement from me that a ZL1 < LS9, buuuuut....... who the hell cares unless you are the 2% PRO fella or sitting in the peanut gallery commenting on the pros and cons but not ever actually taking the wheel?

Put me behind the wheel of a ZL1 and I will forever know in my heart I was driving one of the mother loads of history!
