I have a difficult time understanding why a person would turn a LT1 front end into a LS1........
I bought my LT1 because it was the last year for that front end.

I would have rather rad an LS1 under the hood but I couldn't live with the fish face........

To each their own........

In hindsight - I should have bought an LS1 and coverted the front to the LT1 style.

I am sure you will like it and I trust it will come out mint......

But an LS1 clip without an LS1 will mean more than a few embarrassing moments you may have when fbody people look at your car. A well done body and paint job to an lt1 F-body won't suffer in looks to an ls1 fbody.

However, I am wishing the best for you with your project. Good luck.

Nah, I don't get embarrassed easy. I don't see what the big deal is really. A buddy of mine changed his over and people gave him thumbs up (fbody ls1 owners included) Another buddy of mine has a 95 Tahoe and changed it to look like the First Gen Escalades and he got thumbs up too.
I see nothing wrong with updating the look of the car. A lot of guys like the LT1 front and vice versa. I happend to like the LS1 front end. I am not trying to fool anyone either, matter of fact I will put 9TEEN93 license plate before my birthday in May. If we worried about what others thought in this world we would not be where we are today. But you have the right to voice your opinion and it's heard. Thanks
