I found a 70's jaguar at the junkyard today with a sbc in it. I noticed it had the small pad for the ID number so I wrote the suffix down to see what it was. The suffix code is CKT, my list shows that it's a 1972 350 LT-1 from a z28 camaro. Is the 72 LT-1 anything like the 70? Is it worth getting?, are the heads any good? I have know idea if it's junk, or if the heads are even original.
CKT is a 72 LT1 (auto) according to my info. Not quite as good as the 70, but a good motor to grab. 72 was a hydraulic, lower compression version of the 70 LT1. 255 hp for 1972 Vs 370 hp in 1970 (vette). Pull a valve cover if you can, should have screw in studs and guide plates if the heads are original 2.02 >>>good find either way..

Well I took the top end of a untouched supposedly 72 lt1 camaro not to long ago and it didn't have screw in studs but they did have 2.02/1.60 valves
Can you post that list for the 70 and 71? When I can get back over there I'll pull the valve cover and see. It has ram horn manifolds on it now, but they may have just used them for clearance.
yeah, I've done a few with manifolds back in the day.
