Ls1 intake on lq4
MAP sensor, injectors, TB with fit fine
Rail is intake specific, beware your truck will likely be a return style and the LS1 returnless
Coolant tubes will not fit in stock form, some have successfully bent them enough to clear. Ive always kinked them. Go LS1 or LS6, they are cheap enough
The truck TB upper PCV port is longer than the Fbody versions and will interfere with the throttle linkage. Channel locks will allow you to twist this upwards slightly to clear
Be aware of the accessory interference which is the biggest hang-up in this venture

If you are using truck accessories the upper water pump outlet will hit the cruise control linkage and the idler pulley will interfere with the throttle body.
Someone makes an adapter to move the idler so the belt will work but I can't remember who makes it. It is something you could make yourself if you had fabrication experience.
If you are doing this for hood clearance, you need to ditch the truck accessories and buy or fab your own because the alternator will now be higher than the intake.

location kit.
Now as far as injecters and fuel rails go, will I be able to use the stock truck inj and rails in the 97 vette ls1 intake or do I need to get ls1 inj and rails?
This is an intake off a lq4 not 5.3

Vette intakes do not have provisions for Drive By Throttle cables. You will need to make a bracket or find and insert the brass grommets in the holes to bolt it down. I stole mine from the truck intake I had.
