Should be a 2-bolt block. IIRC, the only LT1s that got a 4-bolt block were the Corvette LT1s. Caprice, Impala, and F-body LT1s all had 2-bolt blocks.

Actually I think that all the LT1's were 2 bolt even the vette motors. The 4 bolt blocks were the LT4's I think.

All LT1's were 2-bolt. The LT4 (which was a corvette only motor until 97 in the SS's I believe) is 4-bolt

uh....no. F-Body/Impalla/Roadmaster LT1's were 2 bolt. Corvette's were 4 bolt, as was the LT4.

Well that clears up a misconception I had. I'm getting a corvette LT1 soon... it seemed everywhere I looked and LT4 was the only motor in a corvette..heh.
What other differences are there between corvette and f-body lt1's besides the mains and accesory placement?

all vettes were 4 bolt.
all others 2 bolt.
if the motor has ever been replaced with a motor from GM, it will be a 4 bolt as well. all serviced long blocks WERE 4 bolts. were because GM discontinued the LT1 service motor a few months back.

The vette accesories are the best to get as to avoid any notching. Either can be used though. The vette valve covers also looked a lot better and weren't the cruddy plain jane stamped ones.

I threw mine out!
From what i understand 2 bolt is actualy better because a 2 bolt splayed is stronger than a stock 4 bolt. However i have been wrong before.

I didn't go with the fuel rail covers for looks or because they say corvette. I just liked them because they hide the fuel rails and related crap. I do like the people who come up and say hey you got one of them corvette motors in your car. I say yep here's your sign!!!!
