Afterthoughts Auto (sponsor) has them for LT1's too. I have a LT1 set that have just been sitting in my room. I started sanding one of then to smooth out and custom paint for my car but I gave up. Wanna buy em?

wow, some bad info here...the 97/98 vette had the two slits, the 99+ had a single.

these shown here are for an LS1. if you want it for an LT1 its different, and as stated above i think afterthoughts has then, if not then check ebay. i know ive seen them from one of the venders from this site.

Yes, this is correct. And if your LS1 has the EVAP hooked up then you need the two slit one for the return line. If not, get the single slit frc's.

Thats exactly what I needed to know. I got rid of the EVAP on my Camaro and only need 1 slit and I was't sure if the one with 1 slit would fit or not. I've got 5.3 heads with centerbolt valvecovers. So I need to look for 2000+ Vette covers right?

Just like the one in your sig toofazt.
Another question for you. I just got rid of the EVAP on mine. I noticed that yours is gone too on your Camaro. I wanted to make sure I did it right. I removed the canister and the line running to the intake, I took a vacuum line and put it in place of the canister with a filter on the end for it to breathe. Is that how you did it?
