i noticed on alot of youtube videos, thats the ls1 stock or cammed have really good power, really quick....till it hits about 80-90 mph,then slow a little.but a kat(t4) im guessing(they say) running about 300-350hp looks really fast. even when its up at 90mph it accelerates like its still in first.any comments for this idiot.....(me)

Most people never regear the car after an engine swap.

The LSx has torque while the ka/sr has rpm.

So at the higher speeds in the final gear ha/sr has advantage due to rpm.

All you need to do is change the final drive (ring and pinion gear in the differential) and you're set.
