I think you are dead wrong if you compare an LS1 and a KA that put down the same power numbers thru the same type of durable drivetrain. reason being the KA is more stressed, high strung, on the edge to produce the same numbers. I'll concede the difference probably isnt much, but I do believe the LS1 is cheaper, hp for hp... especially in the long run when you have to consider rebuilding and general maintenance.

imho the SR's (w/coil packs) and LS1's both have better ignition than the KA, stock for stock and I think the LS1 wins hands down in the stock computers tuning capabilites and low costs of tuning.
