Default Will throttle body gasket kit for L98 work on LT1??

All I'm seeing on the Autozone website is a GP-Sorensen gasket kit for the L98 throttle body.

Will this work on my LT1 throttle body?

I can't find anyone in town that has these stupid gaskets. Even the dealer doesn't have them, but they can order them for $30

Jay, I got a complete upper end gasket kit for my Intake manifold at Advanced Auto on South Parkway. They had it in stock. It had the TB Gasket in it. Felpro.

I also might have an extra unused TB Gasket you can have but I'd have to check.

I figured they had to have some kind of Felpro gasket that would work, but it's hard to get that info from their website, and when you talk to them on the phone you get the typical "uhhh, well, the computer's not showing it..."

I just went down there and told em what I wanted then helped the guy work his little computer until I said "Thats the one I want" They didn't have it at that store but they did that search thingy and found a store that has the kit in town. I made sure I got the item number and got them to pick it up.

I really think I got an extra new felpro gasket for the TB laying around. I just gotta check.

Did it have the thin rubber gasket that's under the plastic cover on the top of the throttle body? That's the only one I'm positive needs replacing, but I know I'll probably want to do the gasket between the throttle and manifold, and the one for the IAC when I take everything off to clean it.
