Not without modifications.

I can't give you an exact quote because I've never seen one for going lt1->sbc but sbc->lt1 is usually around 400$. The ls1 intake is a bit easier and cheaper to convert to sbc though. 200$ for modifications if you provide intake or 400$ flat out and that includes intake and everything (See www.lt1intake.com)

Honstly, there are so many better systems that will bolt right on.
If you want the EFI just go with either the Edelbrock Victor EFI setup. That or a holley stealth ram with your choice of heads.

What is your goal with this engine?

The snag with LT1 injection on a gen1 is the opti signal, now some folks have grafted the optical pickup to HEI distributors but it is not a simple project.
