Are the timing cover gaskets different for the different year LT1's? I bought a timing cover gasket but it turns out its for a 94 camaro. Can it be modified to work at all? What all is different compared to a gasket for a 96?

 

i think they are the same for all.i dont think the blocks have changed so there for the cover mounts to the same place.i know the covers changed but not the mounting

 

Same part number for 93-97.

 

I'm thinking the cover gasket is the same. If you get the whole kit which includes the round seals for the water pump, opti, and hub opening they differ for different years since the opti opening changed.

 

Keep in mind it's only going to cover half of the back side of the timing cover surface. The rest is sealed by the oil pan gasket. Be sure to use RTV.
