The answer to your question is the LT1 manifold that is on your car..

LT4 intakes will not help you unless you use LT4 heads...

The LT1 manifold is pretty good and is not a restriction until you have some serious mods....

Just port your intake. the intakes are about the same, it is the other parts that separate the lt1 from the lt4.

Port dimensions and placement are exactly the same on the LT1 and LT4 intakes. Only difference is the LT4 has more material on the port roof for porting.
