85 with LT-1
Anyone put a corvette lt-1 in mid 80s chevy?? I am looking at one And wondered what headers will fit. Probably will buy the truck, just planning for down the road. Thanks

Re: 85 with LT-1
Most 1 7/9 sbc headers work well with the LTI, and I think other recommend Corvette style more for true LT1 headers.
This is in my top 3 for swaps on my truck. |

Re: 85 with LT-1
I've got full length headers on the lt1 in my 81. A bit a tight fit to get them in but they're in there. No modifications necessary.

Re: 85 with LT-1
I have an LT1 from a 95 Z-28 in my 77. It has full length headers. They are a pretty tight fit. Difficult to change plugs...
