One from a 93-97 LT1 F-Body will bolt up with no trouble. However getting it to work with a thirdgen f-body is another story. See the tech article on here on how to do that.

Make sure you do NOT get one from an LS1 car.

BTW: I am not repeating what I have heard or read. I had 2 T56s (one LT1 type and one LS1 type) and a ZF6 in my house on engine stands. I have seen the differences.
