It will take modification to work. The motor mounts are different.

You keep saying "d to the power of 3" but only make yourself look like a jackass because no one knows what you're talking about.

NO. The 97 engine will not mount up to the LS1 K-Frame you have. Clean it up and sell it. Use the funds to get the correct one. UMI's are considered the strongest.

OK great. Be advised that swapping to a LS1 in a LT1 car is pretty involved (read: difficult). If you want an LS1 car, get an LS1 car.
