Default LT1 flywheel and clutch on LS1, can it be done?

I am curious in doing this as i have bought a 99-00 6.0L truck engine which uses the .400" longer crank. I am trying to put this setup in my 94 Camaro Z28 which already has a built M29 T56 and would really like to use that transmission, with that driveshaft etc with the swap. In my mind this should work being this truck motor can be run with the flat flexplate to use any SBC transmission since the longer crank flange was designed to run the 4l80e without a spacer

So my question is what is the LS1 flywheel/crank bolt pattern? What is the LT1 flywheel/crank bolt pattern. Both flywheels are 168 tooth so i am assuming that that starter will fit. I am very curious. I am just trying to save from having to sell my transmission for a loss, buy another built LS1 T56, all the hydraulics, a new driveshaft (Since i can weld my engine in mated to the transmission as it sits), and just avoid all around wasting money for no reason.

What do you all think?
