Putting a 94 Corvette LT one in a 94Z 28
Putting a 94 Corvette LT one in a 94Z 28
I’d like to know if anybody knows any problems I might have putting a 94 Corvette LT one in a 94Z 28. Also I would like to keep the Corvette intake. Does anyone know if they make a fuel line extension To use the Corvette intake Will it be a problem with the stock, Z28 PCM with the Corvette engine, bought this engine because of the four bolt mains
Re: Putting a 94 Corvette LT one in a 94Z 28
The F-Body Corvette 94 LT1's are almost identical. You've picked up on the fact the fuel line connections are in a different location, and the 4-bolt mains. Only other difference I can think of is the Corvette has dual knock sensors, F-Body has one (swap F-Body sensor to the passenger side position on the Corvette). The Corvette water pump connections are not the same:

Not sure about AIR pump configuration.
May be a difference in the length of the crank hub/damper assembly. Front accessory bracket needs to be swapped.
By "intake" are you talking about the intake manifold? Identical as far as I know.
Not sure what this means:
"Does anyone know if they make a fuel line extension To use the Corvette intake".
All you need to do to address the fuel line differences it swap the fuel rails from your F-Body engine to the Corvette engine.
This article confirms the camshafts are identical:

As long as you keep the F-Body engine harness, the PCM should be OK (with knock sensor correction).

I have a new long tube, stainless headers to put on
I want to put 1.6RR on can you recommend a brand and then aluminum or stainless or stamped steel with the ball
and I need to change the pushrods
Or do anything to the Corvette plastic covers?
Re: Putting a 94 Corvette LT one in a 94Z 28
The "Corvette" valve covers will accept the RR you note Fred without trimming like the metal ones do. Stock PR length "should" be fine between the 2 engines but always good to check by looking at the witness mark you make on top of valve tip with sharpie and rotate engine a few revolutions by hand
If you get SA RR, no guide plates required. If OP buys NSA RR than guide plates need to be installed and also hardened PR. ISKY adjustable guide plates work better on LT1 heads in my opinion
