LS1's are some very rough idling engines. Sometimes they just act like that. How many miles are on the car? Did you get it used?

Does your vette have stock exhaust?

LS1's are known to idle kinda rough, espeshally compared to their LT1 brethren.

Really??

I thought idle was pretty smooth when it was stock.
I assume the service engine soon light isn't on?

i know my 97 z had a rough idle to it but my 01 ss has a lil better but still kinda rough. I dont have stock exhaust on mine either. Bought it with 4 thou miles on it from some guy with back trouble.
