OK- I'll try one more time.

The ZL1 has 40 percent unique parts versus the Camaro SS. A Z/28 has similar percentages - THAT'S why it costs more.

WE don't intend to offer an LS7 (which is handbuilt by the way...) on a 1LE. If you choose to do a conversion - fine - but it isn't as simple as removing one engine and inserting another - AND - your 1LE will still be quite a bit slower than the Z/28 because of the many parts under the skin that are different.

Does that make it clearer?
