I have a 97 Camaro RS. I have pretty much all the other threads and I am more confused now than I was. I was thinking the lt1 would be easier and cheaper than the ls1. My question is what would be the better engine to swap, lt1 or ls1? By better I mean easier install and cheapier. I am also looking to put in a 5 or 6 speed manual trans. Could I go with a bigger v8 for a few extra bucks? And if you have already done a swap, How much you have invested?
