You need to post up some pics of your engine compartment to see what you to work with. Cant know unless we see what were looking at. You will likely have to modify the engine compartment to fit an fbody or bbody setup to make it work.

I had an LT1 in an 83 Malibu Wagon and you're going to need an aftermarket accessory drive setup that moves the ac compressor from the stock LT1 location or you'll have to cut the frame. I had the Street & Performance LT1 accessory drive kit but there are cheaper alternatives such as the setup SpeedInc sells.

It would be nice to have the year of the car and a little more info. Is it a 66 or 96?
