Question Perimeter head FRC's?

Can I install FRC's from a 97-98 vette on my perimeter bolt heads? I know that they have a cutout for the return line and our fuel rails are returnees, everything I've read says they'll only fit centerbolt heads,but the early ls1 vetted were perimeter bolt and had them.

I know its an F-Body, but I put dual fuel line FRC's on my 98. Does the 97-98 Corvette FRC have one or two cuts for the fuel lines? Either way, it doesnt matter and both will work.

thanks i had read multiple threads that said the FRC's would only fit 99+ f bodies, and i didnt want to order them if they wouldn't work. and im pretty sure the 97-98 covers have 2 fuel line cutouts 99+ only have 1

Use the 2-slot covers, I believe you still have the fuel source line & the vapor return line, right? (Two fuel hoses in that area?)
They will fit, but they will not have the lower clips align with the pins on the coils.
They'll still lay down on there & not go anywhere.

Buy the 1997-98 2-slot covers.

97/8 corvettes have one fuel cut. Fbody use frc's with two fuel cuts
