I never said that it makes MORE power, I said it makes more down low, in other words, same as what you just said, only I worded it differently. Should have said peaks lower... As for the tuning responding better for an LS1, i dont think so, as with my Vette i picked up about 8 HP on the dyno, and 14 with my LT1, same guy at the same shop did the tune. And as I stated before, I never said that the LT1 was better, Its all in peoples opinions. My opinion, I like the LS1, but the LT1 is a good proven motor. I have nothing bad to say about either engine.

you didnt hear me right. at any given rpm I made more torque than the lt1 with a curve that continued to go up to 4500rpm. the torque thing is a commonly held misconception because the lt1 is considered torquey while the ls1 is considered to be a top end motor. this is only because of the slope of the curves, doesnt say anything for relative ammounts. as compared to my stock dyno, there is no time that an lt1 is making more torque. now that i have a big overlap cam I make piss poor torque down low, but it builds like mad afterwards, but the same would be true of a big cam lt1 if it were running similar specs
