I know the 6th Gen hood has been reshaped in certain ways, but is the area where the CAI filter box mounts the same? And if so, would the tube to the throttle body be the same size (length, diameter, overall configuration)?

Regarding the 6th Gen throttle body: will it be the same as on my L99 engine, or a completely new design for the LT1?

Thanks. Just curious, mostly.

Well, you may be able to find a LT1 Corvette and get some measurements for the throttle body bolt pattern, but at this time, we just don't know. I can say that it does look like the angle of the throttle body on the LT1 is a bit more raked than on the LS3/99 so the CAI might require some modifications, at the least, and may not fit at all, at the most.

You know, I wonder how true this is or if its just marketing speak. For all visual purposes, yeah, it seems that the two cars share no parts. But looking at the pictures, some things are strikingly similar, if not the same - like the windshield washer controls. Or the blinker lever - different control labels, but the same mechanisms, and size and shape as on the 5th gen.
