New nose

Will all the different noses bolt up the same? I've got an 84' Z 28 but would like to put on a later style nose, are there any known problems with doing this?

it should match right up, unless you were going to a firebird nose, then you have to remount the lights and stuff. thats not to say it can't be done because there is a lime green camaro going around my house witha TA nose and a big white wave decal on the side..

I put a 1992 Z28 nose on my 84 when I had it. All the of bolts will match up....but you will have to cut alot of the plastic reinforcement underneath the nose away.....if you don't....it will not fit AT ALL!!....so...if you do it.....make sure to hack away some of that unwanted plastic...
