    you need to take off the supporting sheetmetal in that area. My lid actually touches the outer skin of my hood, but it fits lol.

        Even on LS fbodies, people have some fitment issues with their lid. I have a MTI lid, and fits great for the TA

          what hood? the problem is that LT1 hoods close closer to the crossmember than LS1 hoods. The only hood you can get away with a completely unfabbed LS1 setup is like a 4"+ cowl hood that starts at the very front.

              its possible, but i bet it will still require trimming - and almost for certain the LS1 radiator support will not fit unmodified. An unmodified support/lid was not even CLOSE to fitting, hood probably stuck open 4-5"
