Default Stainless brake lines w/ LS1 front conversion?

So I decided to do the LS1 front brake conversion, and I want to get some braided stainless lines too. Are they universal 93-02? Or are there different lines for the LT1/LS1?

I think they're different. I actually just checked on Sam's website and the part #'s for '94-'97 (for some reason, it didn't include '93) are different than the part # for the '98-'02s (both with traction control, so that wasn't the issue). The description under the LS1 set said **Fits only 1998-2002 Rear Disc w/Traction Control** while the LT1 set said **Fits only 1994-1997 Rear Disc w/Traction Control**


I'm not sure what the variances are, and maybe there's a way they can be made to fit....but I don't know, lol.

Especially being they come in a set for front and rear in most cases (unless you're just ordering fronts). I'm guessing the connections to the body/calipers would be the same, just maybe the lengths or the way they route? If the front's are the same, you still have the stock LT1 rears that would need adressing too.

Hmm.... yeah I'm not sure because some sites advertise them to fit 93-02, some 93-97, and some 98-02.

The ones I'm about to buy say 93-97, so I hope they will work.
