Unless you've discovered a new part or something I've never heard of a lt1 heat shield. Could you be talking about the metal thing that's bolted to the bottom of the intake manifold? If so those bolt aren't 5 dollars!

Talking

11516061 m6x1x12 fits under the stock intake, oil splash /heat shield. I think the dealer tried to rape me. they list for $1.47 this is included with the stock motor mine rusted and I left it out. im putting in a new one along with insulating teflon intake gaskets to get a colder air charge. was also contimplating painting the top of the intake black to disapate heat and epoxing the bottom white. but I think it would only be for looks and would offer minimal gain, ceramic on the other hand
