and while i have the motor out what farely cheap mods should look at like pulleys headers new staged clutch or something what would you guys do94 Firebird Formula black soon to have a 94 vette motor -
I am sure someone else will chime in but I do not think there is anything different with the intake. They are both LT1s. The oil pan is probably different. I don't know about the PCM but it is most likely the same also. The 25 HP diffference is mostly in the exhaust.Silver 02 WS-6, 6 speed, Corsa cat-back, SLP lid, K&N filter, BMR STB, !CAGs, Lou's short stick, MSD wires, MTI "Hammer" cam, ASP underdrive pulley, Hooker LTs, Hooker ORY, Comp 918s, TR pushrods, UMI Sfcs, UMI LCAs, NGK TR55s, Hotchkis springs

The only difference is the Vette block has 4 bolts mains and a slightly different camshaft.

I think the fuel rail hard lines are different on the 'vette, so you would have to swap the fuel rails, not the entire intake.
The front accessory mounting bracket is completely different, and as a result the damper hub has a different length. All would need to be swapped out.
You will have an extra knock sensor on the drivers side of the block. Leave it, or remove it and put the pipe plug from you F-Body block into it.Fred
