LT1 coolant hoses

I am thinking of swapping in a carbed LT1. Will the radiator hoses connect the same as with a conventional small block, since the LT1 has reverse cooling? Will the accessory brackets off of my 92 work, or do you need the LT1 pieces? Thanks

Yes, but you'll have to get a set of F-body LT1 hoses and use your stock radiator.

(Easy way) You'll need a set of B/F-body accy. brackets, a set (7) of 17mm spacers,
a Y-body (Vette) LT1 balancer and you'll be in the money.
