thats for the vented opti version, looking at his cardomain site, its a 94, early LT1. with pre 95 versions all you have to do is take the two hoses that connect to the TB at the bottom of the TB and put em together. here is pre 95 TB bypass.

I say go for it, it doesnt take long at all, its really cheap, and it does add some power, but its really not noticable, but its there especially when the car is sitting in traffic, you can feel the difference.
