Kudos to your level of detail in comparing every little difference between the two engines. Your videos are incredibly professional and a joy to watch. Thanks so much!

Absolutely!!! Yeah you should do a video of your swap into your Camaro . I’m always willing to learn about any engine you want to showcase. I love learning about the new LT engines. It’s truly crazy how much horsepower you can get now out of your engines. It use to take a lot of work to get your engine up to anything over 500hp with the technology we had but now it’s crazy how you can just go on your lap tap and change your timing your air fuel rates and see what is going on in real time it’s awesome. Thanks for the videos

Your commentary on Cross comparing the engineering evolution of the GMv8 small block, at a glance, is very informative an impressive. Keep it coming.

For now I’ll stay with the LS platform The LS engines have proven they can cope with well above the factory rating and every year we see the number pushed further. The LT for the moment is not affordable ( certainly not here in Australia) and the tuning options are limited too. Certainly the LT is an excellent power plant that makes amazing torque and fuel economy and would be a great engine swap for a car that would be daily driven where the factory output is all that’s required. As the engines become affordable and development of aftermarket parts and pieces increase along with tuning options then yes I can see these engines overtaking the LS just as the LS overtook the gen1 SBC. Great content though and I’d really like to see the Camaro LT swap 💪

Will love to see the swap process

The LS3 head flows more than the LT1 head on the intake. And the exhaust port on the LT1 has a dogleg in it that really chokes off flow. For making naturally aspirated power, I prefer the LS3. The only reasons the LT1 in the C7 made more power than the LS3 in the C6 was higher compression ratio and longer duration cam. Put a Hot Cam in the LS3, and it makes 480 hp. Put in an ASA cam, and it makes 525.

great production value and very informative

This was very interesting, thanks. I understand the government mandates pushed the engine development (from Gen 3 to Gen 4 with AFM) in a direction of lowered reliability. With the latest LT, is this still motivated by mileage? Some argue for the simplicity of the old 350. The reliability jump with the Gen 3 was significant however. My LM7 is still going strong after 275k miles. I only changed the knock sensors, intake manifold gaskets, and a few water pumps. All very easy to do by myself with 10mm and 13mm tools. These Gen 3 engines with their controls seem to be able to take a lot of abuse and provide service for a very long time. I accept the mpg hit for an engine that may outlast the body. Interested in your perspective on this.

There is a program to alter some systems however your performance V8 is no-go E85. It is safe to run upto E20 though. The down side is worse mpgs and a slight 10-14 hp increase. To me not worth the lower cost of sugar water contamination in my cylinders, on plugs, valves, etc.

I have a project build 1998 Chevy S-10, 2.2, 5 spd that I want to do an LS swap but after watching this video what engine would be the most viable option of swapping? I’ve been doing research and watching videos like yours and I see most prefer the truck 5.3 because of their availability and iron block but I still will need a manual transmission, ECU, fuel management etc. I even seen the video where you have to swap out the intake and front due to the larger truck intake. Thank you for whatever you may be able to help me with!

But the most amazing thing about direct injection engines is that with out fuel being sprayed onto the backs of the intake valves, oil vapours sent into the intake system from the positive crank case ventilation system can burn onto the backs of the valves causing valve coking, a problem that was solved over a decade ago by port fuel injection.

The LT seems pretty amazing in capability's, but I just wonder if it will have the reliability of even the old small block. Direct injection leads to grungy intake valves and lose of power as well as expense at the repair shops. VVT is a power booster, but also prone to fail due to complexity. Thinner piston rings break easier. Aluminum block? Does it at least have iron liners? And big horsepower numbers alone are not indicative of what makes for a " good " engine. They are only part of the math formula for an engine's power output in this country. Kilowatt output, which Europe uses to express engine power is more relevant today.

@anthony sound like you own shit dodge or a Prius, I’ve never had any problems with Chevy motors.

For the additional expense of an LT I probably go with an ls3 in a 68 camaro

Nice job on the video from all aspects, first class it is The active fuel management was very troubling. The LT system has a delay under sudden power demands

Great video information and graphics

I prefer the LS3 in my 2013 Grand Sport to the LT1 in my 2017 GS. The LS has a smoother feel. Also, no cylinder deactivation tech in the LS.

Yes, do an LT swap on your 68 Camaro. Also you should consider making a video on the Vortec 4200

EXCELLENT detailed video between the two and keeping bias out of it. You can tell you favor GM slightly but you keep that out of the equation. I too am a Gm fan because of how great they are, easy they are to build and to throw in anything, how cheap they are, and the options available....But the coyote has proven itself and it's nice to see an unbiased head to head. Subscribed....keep'em coming 👍

Great content bro New sub

Newer tech is better than older?! Wow what a revelation!
