Hi,
I guess that the reported energy are averaged over the simulation time.
If you want to compare energies and understand what change in the topology
implied,
it is better to compare the energies of the first step using the same
starting structure.
The definition of LJ interactions (including 1-4 interaction) is not
trivial and involved different parameters,
I would suggest to check if your change in topology are doing what to
desire by looking at
http://manual.gromacs.org/documentation/current/reference-manual/topologies/topology-file-formats.html?highlight=pairs%20
with particular attention to values of gen-pairs, nrexcl, [pairs].
Best regards
Alessandra
