lt1 guys run the lid just fine. I ran a ls1 lid with a sunoco hood. fit ok. other guys have had better luck, need to lay the radiator down more. do a search in the lt1 section, you'll see a lot of pics and a few writeups.

you may even get luckier because your car was a ls based car to begin with, I think the ls cars had a lower radiator support or something along those lines that helps the lid fit.

i wont be running a lid on this project, so the pluming needs to be similar to that of a lt1
