Are 2ls's slower than an LT or RS? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Topic. I heard that the ls has a 2.92 gear ratio and the lt/rs has a 327 and a sport mode. Is this true? Thanks.

There is a sticky at the top of one of the pages describing the differences. Yes, they are a little slower I think.

Yes, the gear ratio is much lower to give better fuel economy. As far as sport mode, that's an auto only feature, so the manual versions would be the same 6 speed.

Slower is a relative term - not as fast to accelerate, yes.
