start off by doing the wing nuts that hold on the center piece then work your way out to the ends of the tailights t will automatically align itself

LT1 and LS1 rear ends are basically the same thing. Should fit perfect, as LS1 people put LT1 tail lights in their cars no problem.

You know i have this exact same problem...

I have an LT1 Trans Center piece with LS1 Firebird tailights, and it seems that no matter how hard i try, it just wont line up perfectly... pisses me off...

Maybe ill try and use the firebird centerpiece to see if i get it to fit perfect...
