INSPECTED, SERVICED, FULLY DETAILED Introduced for 1970 on the
Camaro and Corvette, Chevrolet's potent new LT1 engine delivered
awesome performance with 370 factory-rated horsepower on tap. Based
on a high-strength cylinder block with 4-bolt mains and forged
internals, the LT1 was built to perform with a hot solid-lifter
valvetrain and breathed deeply with free-flowing cylinder heads and
low-restriction intake and exhaust systems. Affectionately called
"The Mouse That Roared" by Corvette chief engineer Zora
Arkus-Duntov, the 350 cubic inch LT-1 delivered big-block
performance with great handling by virtue of its much lower weight.
Importantly, the LT1 often slipped under the purview of
increasingly strict insurance companies on the lookout for
big-block premiums.While lowered compression ratios brought gross
horsepower ratings down to 330 HP by 1971, performance was
essentially intact. Just 1,949 of 21,801 Corvettes comprising 643
Convertibles and 1,306 Coupes left the factory with LT1 power for
1971. Today, these special high-performance cars rank among the
most enjoyable and sought-after of all classic Corvettes
built.Featuring great livery including rare (1 of 1,417), Trim
