The LT-1 cam closes the exhaust earlier so as to raise the dynamic compression and most likely mandating some amount of race gas to prevent detonation
the LT-1 has a wider (116) LSA actually and the shorter intake duration both contribute to dynamic compression issues

But Im asking specifically about the difference running the 1.6 on the intake vs 1.5 all things being equal.
