  • LT1 & LS1 I-pipe differences?

    Are there any differences between the size of the LT1 and LS1 I-pipes, or are they both 2.75 inches? Any difference in hangers? Will the LS1 fit a 3.4? The reason I ask is because I know a kid who may get a Z28, but I don't know if he's getting an LT1 or an LS1. He will probebly put a catback on it, so I'd like to buy his I-pipe. Thanks!

    The LS1 and dual cat LT1 (96-97) have an I pipe that stops short of the s-bend. It's because the V8 y-pipe on the dual cat cars extends further back and goes right into an I pipe. If your friend buys a 93-95 LT1, it should have a single cat, unless it was a 95 California car. The single cat LT1 has an I pipe just like the V6 models do.

      Thanks for the info dude. I guess those LS1 and dual cat LT1s won't fit. Oh well

        The I pipe WILL work. Either one will work for your car with the exception of replacing the hangers which is not a big deal. I have a 97 Z28 I Pipe on my 2000 and it routed perfectly. But, it didn't have the S bend and replaced the hangers.
