20 Years Ago in Hot Rod, LT1 Sneak Peek
Remember when the LT1 seemed like a marvel of modern technology? Twenty years ago the automotive media was excited at the prospect of 300hp in a mainstream Corvette while today the LT1 is like a middle child stuck between the Gen I small-block that’s cheap to build and the Gen III/IV LS-series that is capable of insane amounts of power.With the LT1′s relatively short production life, how long will it be before it becomes an icon of an era? There’s already the traditional hot rod crowd that drools over ’50s and ’60s mills like flatheads, nailheads, early hemis, and 409s; will we ever see a return of the trend of monochrome, billet-laden, pastel, “90s period-correct” street rods that will see the LT1 as a crown jewel.
Let’s hope not.
