As in how? cause everything I read stated that the only reason the LT1 was able to run the compression it was able to run on 87 octane fuel was due to it using reverse flow cooling and I also remember the early brochures and GM material prior to the LS1 hitting the floors stating it would too use reverse flow cooling but due to a patent lawsuit GM was no longer allowed to use this type of cooling in any of its engines, so it changed its design to a standard flow cooling system prior to the LS1 hitting the showroom floor.
