The LS1 was a bigger PITA when it comes to the rear passenger side spark plug and wire when doing headers and I've done them on both engines. The best thing about the LS1 is that it makes a good 30-50 hp more than an LT1 with the same mods and still idles smooth as can be and passes inspection easily!  Radiator! Give me a break!

JEFF YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING! ALl you have to do is remove the passenger side coilpacks and you have easy access. I changed all the plugs and wires on my 00 Vette and my back them 00 Formula in less than 2hrs taking my time. ALso did headers on my last 00 Formula with a member here took us less than 4hrs from beginning to end. It took me a hour to run my plug wires on my last LT1 a few years back and i wouldn't do it again.
I do love the LT1 sound and the front end of LT1 cars. Also owned one with 180k that ran like a top
THE LS1 IS EASY TO WORK ON FOR ANYONE WITH ANY KIND OF MECHANICAL SKILL!!!!!
