The LS1 is aluminium.



I tend to think that a 350 will be more drivable that a turbo setup and less likely to send you into a tree as the engine is responsive and power is a given rather than coming on and off depending on the conditions. Its also a lot simpler, there are plenty of upgrades for down the track and there are heaps around.
