Default Carb intake question

I want to put a carburated intake on my lt1.
Does it have to be lt1 specific or will any small block intake work???
Thanks for the help

To run a standard intake you must either convert the heads to SBC bolt spacing, or the intake to LT1 bolt spacing. They also make lt1/lt4 specific carb intakes, but those are all dual plane setups

I weld up the bolt holes and take the water crossover off for weight and it's easier to work on then too.

It's easier to make the intake work than change the heads.

Send me a e-mail if you need any info on this.
