The curse of the ‘98

When I was looking at LS1 engines to install in my Corvette, here was only 4 years (1998-2002) that would fit, ithout major modifications, o the Corvette and these had to be Camaro or firebirds. I soon found out that the 1998 was the redheaded stepchild of these years. The 1998 has the perimeter bolts on the valve covers, hich I like better, t can only be bored out .004 of an inch (who cares) and the rod bolts are weaker some say. There was also a problem with the PCV valve setup.
The LS engine family has gained a reputation for being a very dependable engine that commonly last for 200k and some often reach 300k. There where many owners of 1998 LS1 cars talking of 150k to 250k cars that had not encountered any problems beyond routine maintenance.
I found the engine I bought less than 700 miles away at half the price and half the mileage of most of the engines I had looked at on places like eBay. I guess I was taking advantage of the curse of the '98.
I did update the valley pan to that of an LS6 with the PCV being internal to the engine
If I took the worse case scenario and had an engine lose a valve into a cylinder at 90 MPH, doubt I would try and have any of the LS1 engines bored and rebuilt. It would be far easier to just buy another LS engine and install it. I would probably still take advantage of the “curse of the '98” and buy that year if one should became available for half the price, alf the mileage and only 700 miles away.
