Default What year ...

did the lt1s first come out?

I thought the l98 were in everything up to 92. With that they ran SD 730 ECM....Correct? Was 93 the first year for the lt1s?

Can verify this....Thanks.

:cheers:

First year for the LT1`s was 92 in the corvette. 93 was the first year for the f-body cars. The ECM is a 16159278. Cheers!

:withstupid: This way the F-Bodies could be powered by a corvette engine, or at least that's what they always seem to be claimed as. :D

Well... not really. :) Corvette is the Y-Body platform created to design & test new materials, production techniques and technologies. The new stuff generally shows up a year or two ahead of time in the vette.
