Well, to all you wise guys, I just pulled out my build sheet for my '95 and it says right on it: LT1 350HO 5.7MPFI.

The window sticker simply says: 5.7 LITER 300 H.P. V8 ENGINE under "Standard Equipment"

and at the top of the window sticker it says: 5.7 LITER SFI V8 ENGINE

The build sheet for my 92 says the same thing so it might be "HO" as compared to the 91's L98 350.

As far as what parts your 1 of 1 engine has, I have no idea. Good luck with it.
..."LT1 ho" as in "you be drivin' an 96 LT4 track ho, I be drivin' an Lt1 street ho."

On a serious note, the H.O. on the build sheet probably refers to it being a 4 bolt main LT1, as they were also made with 2 bolt mains.

Why? It's not like the 4 bolt main engines made more power than the 2 bolt main engines. Yes, they were rated higher in the y-body than the f-body, but the engines are internally identical other than the main caps.

Thought I bring this post back up to the top

Guess what?

The orginal poster WAS RIGHT!
There was in fact an LT1 HO engine!


http://www.enginebuildermag.com/Arti...lt1_enige.aspx

Although the LT1 was only around for five years, there were two-bolt and four-bolt blocks, aluminum and cast iron heads, regular and H.O. cams that came with long and short dowels, and three different front covers. There was also the "Baby LT1," the 265 cid version that was the standard engine in the Caprice from 1994-‘96. With all that in mind, let’s take a look at this family of engines and see what goes where.
...
The 1993-‘94 H.O. cam had a few changes, but all of the early H.O. cams are the same for all intents and purposes.
...
1995-’97 350 WITH ALUMINUM HEADS – In 1995, the aluminum-headed motors got the late, pin-drive distributor, so there’s a second version of the H.O. cam with the big pilot hole (.500" x 1.0625") and the long (.685") dowel pin. See the photo. Look for a cam with the long pin and either "242" or "705" stamped on the barrel in front of the first lobe.

You guys know that a 95 LT1 in a camaro is rated at 285 HP as opposed to 300 for a 95 LT1 in a corvette...right? One of them has to be more HO. lol

Yes. we do speak English in Canada. But more importantly, comments like that do little to help continue the support our country has for the USA. Thank God I have so many lifelong American friends that would be equally embarrassed by such sarcasm.
