If you got a z06, you could put the 2300 on that car without much trouble

Yeah, the same blower goes on there, you just wont need the pump or intercooler, since you have those already. More headroom and runs more efficient than the z06 blower. Doesnt have to spin as fast. Runs cooler. Sell the lt4 blower for ~1500

I thought the intake ports on the heads were different. Does it bolt straight up to it or no?

Check out the kits on magnusson, it sure all looks like the same stuff! Check out the z06 forum. I only have an LT1. I'm pretty sure its the same!

Hows the new baby!? Congrats. How does it feel vs the grand sport (after upgrades)

I thought the same on the LT1 vs LT4 intake ports. When guys slap oem LT4 blowers onto their LT1's dont they purchase some kind of adapter plate?

I finished my Z06 2300 install over the weekend, just waiting on tuning now. The magnuson LT1 lid bolts right up to their LT4 blower, but im not sure about the compatibility of the actual blower unit and how it bolts onto the heads
