UMMM, the ls1 would be a great daily driver, i dont see how someone said they are uncomfortable? just an opinion i realize, but they feel pretty good, they will rattle after a while yes, but so will a mustang, especially a foxbody.
like you said, you dont race at the track, well then an f-bod is what you want, because as soon as you get some serious power under the hood, and take it to the track frequently, the 10bolt rearend just wont live......I swear the 8.8 rearend was built for dragracing

Even with my mods, a stock ss would be a handful from a roll, maybe beat me, being their 2nd gear with 3.42's will see almost 80 mph!!
now the lt1's just dont have much of a chance against stangs, i've run many lt1's.... lt4 hot cammed, slp headered, strokers..ect.... they just cant catch me i do like the ls1's though, pretty stout powerband they have, so ignore the avatar.....
