I'm going to guess it won't work, either. I imagine they changed the positioning to fit the car space requirements. I'm sure GM would have used the same for both if they could have.

And.... the water pumps are different. Shoebox has a comparison on his site.

See also this site, which shows the difference in the serpentine belt routing, which actually look the same???

Ok, well you said he bought a roller and nothing said about having an old blown up 94 he could use parts from. If that were known, it would have been suggested to swap over what was needed.

Re: 96 b body complete lt1 in my 94 z

The info is in the link I posted. The OBD-2 hub is 0.10" shorter than an OBD-1 hub, so the OBD-2 crank sensor reluctor can fit behind the hub. You would have to remove the reluctor gear from the 96 B-Body engine crank, to allow the Camaro/Firebird/Corvette OBD-1 hub to fit on all the way.

Use the 94 knock sensor.
