Default puuting a Trans am nose on Formula...

does anyone know if a LT1 trans am nose will fit a Lt1 formula. Im just not sure if the T/A nose has the lines for ground FX or not.

Yes it will, but it will stick out like a sore thumb without the side skirts and rear bumper to compliment the ground effects look. Crappy picture from craigslist, but you get the idea:

yeah the LT1 nose has the definite sign of the ground effects where you can pull it off on a LS1 cause it doesnt show that body line

definitely. like they said sideskirts and rear bumper. you can buy them off a wrecked car for cheap. total you're probably lookin at around $500 for the swap, plus paint, but who knows you might be able to find the parts on ebay already painted in your car's color if you're lucky enough. And then you can turn around and sell your old bumpers and make some of that money back.
