LT1 Headers on an '86 350 ???

Hi Guys... Just need some opinions on this combination. Can get a set of LT1 headers on auction, here in New Zealand. Was thinking about replacing my modified Hooker Competition headers with them due to P.I.T.A plug access and very little clearance with my car being right-hand drive and all...
1: First and most important... Will these fit?
2: Any ideas on performance differences that may occur?
In fact, any opinions on performance in general from these headers would be welcome. I run below, or around, 5000RPM and these seem to resemble modern RamsHorn type headers? More info on my setup here... http://www.86transam.com . Was wondering if they would be any good? Any help most appreciated. Thanks and regards... 86trnzam.

No, LT1 headers will not fit in a thirdgen chassis. You need thirdgen headers.
