I'd have to agree with that, I have no problems working on LTs, but LSs I'm still on a learning curve. But them, I've probably pulled apart 25 LT1 over the years and they are far more like a traditional SBC and I've only gotten into about 3-4 LS1s?
Far as LTs being so much slower then an LS I really don't see that much difference when stock? Well , maybe if you happned to drive one with the 2:73s gears. Drive one with the 3:42 and they are only a tick slower then an LS and both engine run/feel the same, you don't really feel the claimed "extra torque" of the LT engine, nor the "top end" of the LS. At least not from my butt-o-meter.
