Did you get this stuff?
Do you have other castings and just need these specifically? If that is the case I can have my castings looked at, they are near you in Concord. ie meaning if you have other casting and need these specifically we might would just swap....

Shon,

Look and see what you have and let me know. I have some old stuff sitting around, so I am sure that we can do something. The NHRA changed the specs. for the 1998 LT1, so I am short on castings.

Thanks,

Daren

I bet they did do some changing to the 1998 LT1
As a matter of fact, where can I get a '98 LT1?

Shon,

In 1998 there were a lot of fast LT1 Stockers. When the LS1 first came out nobody new how to make one run. The LT1's were actually faster. To fix this GM told the NHRA that they built a bunch of 1998 LT1 cars and they gave Ram Air front ends to a bunch of teams to get the new body style in front of the public. I have never seen or heard of a factory built 1998 LT1 car. I do know of a couple of "Body In White" factory cars that were built.

If you run a LS1 and call your car a 1998 the NHRA/IHRA will DQ you!!

A friend stopped to get a spare intake of a different casting number from me and that got us to wondering so we looked at the intake on my heads/cam motor it is a 138, that intake came off the original 1996 L99 the car came with, it is ported and milled to match the heads so this one is of no help. I only mention it incase it helps you track down another should you need too. L99 parts are dirt cheap compared to f-body stuff too because most do not realize just how much interchanges.

Thanks for the heads-up. I wonder when GM switched to the 138 casting? I originally thought it was a 1997 piece, but am starting to realize that 1996's had them too. Maybe we should use this forum to find out what years had what castings?

Thanks,

Daren
