Default Recommendations for 80 Vette resto...

Hi guys,

I am slowly but surely getting thru my restoration on my 1980 Vette but there are a few things that I am unsure about at present and would greatly appreciate any advice/recommendations.

The car is originally an L82 car. I have the original but have opted to go with an LT1 spec engine over rebuilding the tired original.

I have read around and have gotten more and more confused and am wanting a definitive plan going forward. As you all could understand. So, my questions are;

What carbie would be best suited for this?

What exhaust would also be best suited?

I am also hunting down an original L82 fan & fan shroud.

Thanks for you help guys.

LT-1 is carbureted C3. LT1 is fuel injected C4. Which are you intending to use?

Please excuse the late reply. Has been a rather busy week!
LT1 C3 version, not the 92+ C4 version.
