Now, if you are getting your TA's mixed up with your V6 Firebirds, that's understandable. But that LT1 was a torquey lil SOB and the LS1 was even more so.
The LFX and LLT are powerful engines, there is no doubt (Contrary to what some here may say), but they do not compare to the later LT1s and LS1s, especially down low where you feel it.
But no matter what any of us here say, if this is how you feel things, well so be it. That makes you happier in the end.
Hopefully you have a thick skin and can take a little razzing. We are generally a good bunch here and really do help each other out, no matter your engine size, so don't take it personally. We all share something in common, which is a love for the Camaro.
Welcome to the site and enjoy that ride of yours!

TY although I disagree with everything you stated about the TA's. The LT1 was a heavy slow pig. I owned 6 LS1 cars so I know them very well. For what ever reason this car runs so well I hope it stays this way a very long time. I can tell you this much Any car with this much performance that is averaging 25mpg on regular fuel blows my mind. If I run the TA the way this car runs it would be getting 15mpg on premium!
Sorry for calling the LT1 a pig but they were slow cars.
