Ignition plug on the 2005 or LS1 is a push pin type. My 06 L76 at least has the threaded nut type. I learned that the hard way, and am now stuck with a useless brand new Bosch $360 starter with the push pin. Lost the receipt, assholes at the local shop changed company names new cpu system so i couldn't return it. :/

Out of interest did it have the threaded nut type on your thunder and push pin on the LS1?

Considering the OP hasn't been seen since their last response, don't think they'll answer
