Default Vig3600 for my '01, work in a '97 f-body???

I'm sure this has been asked before, but i did a search using "LT1 Converter" and got nothing usefull. So I was wondering if a Vigilante converter that works in my '01 Camaro will also work in a '97 Camaro? I need to know pretty quickly, if it does work, then i have a quick easy buy for my 3600 that is on it's way. TIA

The depth of the crank hub is different, and I believe the inlut shaft is splined differently on the '98-later 4L60E.

A '97-02 C5 converter will interchange with an LT1 F-body, but unfortunately, you can't interchange LS1 F-Body converters with their LT1 brethren.
