LS3 didn't debut until 2008 in the base corvettes and is a 6.2, so im not sure which engine your talking about possibly a 6.0 Ly6? Intake from a 98 corvette won't fit on a LS3 block. 98 vette intake is an LS1 intake and has cathedral ports where the LS3 has square ports. You may want to verify what parts you have and repost so you can get some accurate answers.
