Need help with Lt-1
So my camaro has a 1996 Lt-1 out of a corvette. I know the cam has the distributor gear still, I can only find one aftermarket intake that lets me run a distributor. I want to run a blower, but can't find a a base for one for the Lt-1 with a distributor port. Could I swap heads that would let me run a different intake? Or are the heads a different bolt pattern to the block as well?

If the desired is to use a SBC engine with a top-mounted PD blower, the easier path may be to start with a Vortec style block and heads instead of the LT1/4 version. In addition to the intake base fitment and moving the distributor from the front to the rear, the cooling system might also bite back at you.
