Maybe not with a stock L98 intake, but it can be used. For instance with the HSR it is recommended that you either use the LT1 TB or a 58mm TB. My car has an LT1 TB on it right now.

How are you using an LT1 t-body when all the connections and sensors are different? AND do you know what a TPI t-body and an LT1 t-body have the exact same bore size? Just thought you should know.

change the connectors, and yes, it will work(if you use a 93 T/B, only need to change the TPS connector)
