Where did you get those lights? Or did you take the LT1 lense and glue it to the LS1 housing?

It may work to my advantage, I could be at a light and a 5.slow pulls up next to me and says, look its only a LT1, it clearly has an opti problem and a leaky rear intake manifold, lets race it. And then to his surprise, its really a LS1.

There are people that own these cas that never knew there was a tailight difference, let alone random people out on the road.
