LS adapter plates
I have a brand new set of LS adapter plates that have never been installed. Converts cathedral port heads to rectangular port. I was going to use them on my LS1 with LSA supercharger but decided to go with an LS3 instead.
I any one is interested please let me know.

[/QUOTE] The stock bypass valve setup uses an electronic solenoid to control it. I tried simply deleting the valve and hooking it back up normal and it would not make any boost, i had to reverse the tubes and it worked fine after that. My crude $45 boost gauge is tapped into there for now. There is adjustment in the mounting bracket! you need to adjust it so that it will be fully closed at rest so there will not be an air leak on the internal valve or you will not make boost!

Im looking at how you have your bypass valve setup and I noticed I did mine different. I have the bottom port capped and the top port going to the vacuum. I get 8-9 lbs of boost on a 5.3 with stock pulley at WOT but i'm wondering if my part throttle boost is a little low. Is that picture still how yours is set up?

Yea, i just wonder if I hook the lower port up to the boost side I might see more part throttle boost. Right now I have the bottom one capped.
