differences in 94 and 97?

what is the difference in 94 and 97 lt1's? Is it just the timing and vaccum hoses? I have a 94z but i also have a 97lt1 from a z and wish to have it rebuilt to a 355 forged setup. Is it possible to have it done or are the blocks themselves different? I will have the z taken off the road if need be but I have the other engine so I figure I could ask you all first.

Thanks in advance,
chris

I guess what I am trying to get at is can I use the 97 block in my 94? Are the blocks any different

You can use the actual block with no problems.

Re: differences in 94 and 97?

thank you, first time I have gotten a simple answer and you deserve a cookie.
So all I need to do now is get it torn down and brought to a machine shop for phase 1 then forge all internals use cam(larger), timing, hoses, harness, pcm, (ported stock)heads from 94 and bam engine done. You have made my day
