I deliberately picked the motors so that they were close in peak hp and then used what I deemed to be reasonable red lines for shift points. The graphs are indeed close up until shut down time for the LS - had it continued I'd think you'd start to see it nose over big time. My basic point of this comparison is that the LT-5 lets you hang on a bit longer resulting in more power under the used curve.
