Default TPI intake manifold

While I'm far from new to Corvettes in general, I'm new to owning one, and definitely new to having a V8. So, I was wondering if the intake manifold from an LS1 would fit on the L98, and if would offer any sort of significant gain in efficiency, or horsepower? I've heard a lot about updating to an LT4 intake, but I personally think the aesthetics of an LS1 intake would be better.

Wont fit. Use a converted LT1 or a miniram.

Tragic. Didn't think it would, just figured I'd make sure since my search didn't turn much of anything up. Thanks for the quick reply

use a modded lt1 intake on the L98, cut the bottom out of an ls1 intake and use it as a cover (or morph two similar looking plastic v6 intakes, typ egr tube meltdown makes these ez find)
