Hmm i could be wrong on this one. But if you order 92 headers and your usin a 96 ecu. Your gonna throw codes for the cat. But other than that. Id still say got with 96. Headers.

This. Key part of what makes this easy: They're both LT1s

:facepalm:

vette tax




Vette bodies/header fitment and clearance are definitely very different from those specs on an f-body... get the ones for the car

Yes, F-body headers. I put 68 Camaro headers on the 94LT1 that was in my old 68 Camaro. They fit perfectly. Obviously there was no AIR in the 68 so that wasn't an issue.

You would need the headers for the F body.
We carry Pacesetters, so shoot me a PM and i'll get you a price quote.
