I 'think' the only defferents is the pipe that comes up to the intake? The lt1 will not work on a ls1 but the ls1 will work on the lt1.

STS turbo LT1 vs LS1 differences-30-pipe.jpg

here"s mine. the lt1 dont a have the abs block so the pipe comes up through that way. Dont let that be the deal breaker, If your getting a great price you can call sts and just order the pipe they you need there pricing is pretty good for replacement parts.

Sounds fun to bad I live in Dallas, TX. Now can any one tell me if I can run stock injectors on an STS turbo kit?

i live in Cali! but i'll still make the trip out to Oh! you can run stock injectors but you won't like the results and could cause damage if not tuned right. i have 42lb'ers but i don't know what size should be run on an ls1. take a look at the link in my signature too
