Looking into buying a car don't really want anything smaller than an ls1 taught I would ask if you can compare a 351 notch back with an ls1 trans am or ls1 camaro, which would be faster? Of course the 351 wouldn't have stock heads or manifold

hands down a coupe with a 351w!

No I've never liked ford and Chevy mixing up I like both but its either one or the other, I know the ls1 run about 13.3 quarter mile what would a 351 fox body run? With a mild set up

Oh no disrespect bro didn't see u have an ls1 in your coupe, nice car, is it a big difference as if u were to have a 302 in it?

Depends on how mild, I've seen them run mid 11s to mid 12s, throw on a turbo or supercharger and break 10s all day.

huge difference. stock ls1 in the coupe is low 12s all day with street tires. great street car with suspension and rear. easy 11 sec car with ls2 or 3, and it will still sound stock and get 28mpg with a 6speed, hard to beat imo

I'd have to win the lotto to even consider buying a Chevy. If I did it would be a 67-69 camaro with a TT BBF just to be a jerk.

the ls1 will give the car a better weight balance, bolt ons and parts are a little cheaper, it runs more efficient, a 351 would have to be built pretty agressively to compete with a modded ls. i've had both a 408 stroker and a ls1, in their respected cars of course, i'd honestly say I liked the ls1 better, more efficient, less torque but i wasn't rock crawling, lol, and i'm speaking of ls1 swapped into fox vs 351, ls1 in a f body or vettes are completely different beasts.

if you call 8.5 to 1 comp, 354ci, & custom blower cam. "pretty agressive" [Roll Eyes] runs 10.5x's in a t-top car on 91. hell, bet i could run that fast on 87 if i tried. [Big Grin]

why? because it's stronger than a stock block? a dart block don't make more power than a stock block, it can handle more power. i can take my h/c/i and put them on a stock short block and make the same power that i am making na.

well you've got machining, balancing, the cost of your rotating assembly, that's quite a bit different than a 351 swap, that's a custom motor. not knocking it I love your car it's super sleeper, but i'm pretty sure he's not trying to bracket race this thing and run 9's.

sure mine is a custom motor, and i paid more for my crank & block than most will pay for their whole motor. but i'm going for 8.9x's so of course, i got way better than a stock block. but that don't mean i can't take my h/c/i off my motor, and make the same na power on a stock long block. i bet i make more. with 9 to 1 comp.

Ahhh yes, the ever lasting question which has no answers. I think the best way to pose this question of 351w versus LS1 is this: if you have two good running engines, stock 351w and a stock LS1, and had 2k to spend on it, which motor woul be faster?

LS1 would piss on the Windsor. Done.

a good running 351w is cheaper than a good running ls1 to start with so u already got more money in the the ls1 before the 2k budget lol!

man so many ls1 haters, to all you with negative feedback, have any of you owned, driven, or built an ls engine? they're fuckin sick, but so was my 408windsor stroker, but they definitely aren't comparable, the ls1 can be stroked, cammed to the max, and still be really driveable, the 408 or 351 on the other hand not so daily driveable, we're talking about two drastically different motors, if going straight is all you wanna do then by all means build a windsor, although the ls's aren't bad for that either, there's an 02 ss out of sac that runs in the nines with stock 346 longblock, ms3 cam, longtubes, 200 shot, and a faast intake.

then you sir are doing it wrong. my 623hp on 91 octane ran just fine on the street. 100% problem free. even drove it from stockton to sac clicked off 10.4x's @ 131. in a car with only 4:10's. why all the hate for the 351 on a ford site? maybe if you guys got off the nuts of the ls1 you might learn something.

Posted by highway21 (Member # 10516) on :
 
In reality its up to you... obviously with the 351 you get a little more displacement and you keep the car 100% ford.. upside to having a ls1 is there all aluminum (super lite compared to the 351).. and there super easy to tune and respond well to minor mods.. ls1 vs 351 in a fox i would put a ls1 hands down just because of the weight savings alone. but i plan to put my 408 on spray in my fox just because i already own a ls1 f body.. so like to keep one car all ford and one car all gm ;-)

edit - just seen you were talking about ls1 fbody vs 351w fox... would be a drivers race with a H/C/I 351 vs H/C/I ls1.. all around nice car would be the f body (trans am) cough cough lol

Well than u should know as well I as do that ls1s ain't got shit on a 351 built properly
And I see no money to be saved by going ls1 route

I feel ya bruh., i gets down. I've built some basic h/c/i s/c combos. They go for sure. My boy runs 10's on a junkyard build= 4cyl picknpull notch/ f150 5.8 shortblock,/ EdL alum. heads/ demon carb/ stock AOD. and a 150 shot. He ran it a few times at Sac raceway before it blew. Since he put a 408 bottom end/ same setup same car and now runs low 9's. Before the stroker kit, he had less than $3,500 into it. He did all his own work on it.

I guess there isn't really a winner lol I'm leaning more on the 351 just to stay all ford
 
Posted by Slowback67 (Member # 6348) on :
 
Stock for stock. The LS1 is better. They come with a better set of heads from the factory. Would I buy one? Hell no LOL. You can build a very nice running 351w that will run for years without any problems.
Mail order LS1 350 hp ~ 5,000.00+
http://www.jegs.com/i/GM%20Performance/809/17801267/10002/-1?CT=999

Mail order 351/408cid 425hp ~ 4,500.00 +
http://www.jegs.com/i/Blueprint-Engines/138/BPF4084CT/10002/-1?parentProductId=


I'm surprised the 351w stroker motor is 500 bucks cheaper then an LS1...... And stock ( meaning how it's comming from jegs.) Makes a bit more HP for the money. Sorry I pulled a Chevy move and posted a bigger motor. But most people are building strokers now anyways LOL.

Seems like this swap might be half the cost of a ls1

Same question goes to the guys who have negative feedback about the 351, have you ever owned, driven, or built a 351?

ya i stated in my previous post, I had a 351 windsor stroked to 408, with 13:5:1 compression, afr heads, demon carb, etc, so ya I have a lil experience with fords/351, had a 347 stroker in my 89 with ported aluminum heads and an s trim.

the 302 had crazy top end once the boost kicked in, but the 408 was just power any time you want it, revved better, it was balanced better, with way better parts.

my 408 was more of a drag motor, most aren't built that agressive.you could build something more streetable like warhorse's motor.

Why are we arguing over two propelry built motors being better than each other. As far as im concerned, 351 and a 346 ls1 is still pushrod. They can both do the same shit.

Thats what makes the car game interesting, not everyone has the same shit, same build.
