can i put a 98 ls1 in a 99 ???
Yes...leave the PCM in the car, they are not compatible whatsoever with each other and 99+ is better anyways. Use the fuel injectors and coolant temp sensor (driver side head) off of the '99 motor, and you will be good to go. Every other sensor and plug is the exact same.
98 coolant temp sensor is an odd-ball 3-wire one, all 99+ use a 2-wire.
The 98 fuel injectors are larger than the '99 fuel injectors, and the computer will dump too much fuel if you use the '98 injectors with the stock '99 PCM...so use the '99 injectors on the '98 motor.

Yes, I put a '99 motor in my '98 the first time around. Reverse of above.
Use the '98 injectors and coolant temp sensor off your current motor, and everything else will plug in and work perfect.
And you have to keep the '98 computer unless you want to do lots of re-wiring.
