This is great news! I just bought a TBSS bare intake not to long ago!

So you can't just swap over our truck fuel rails and injectors on to this intake? I have the return style fuel system also. I was under the impression that you could.

Hopefully ill see some awesome gains when i put milled 243's and this intake on at the same time.

Nice gains. If I am reading it right though it does look like it was considerably cooler on your most recent run.

I bought some from ChevyLee that had fittings welded to the fuel rails so they could be retained in the swap.

yeah your right i just noticed that too but the humidity was higher the recent tune. The correction factor should keep it close relative to weather, at least it was the same dyno.

Either way good numbers and a conversion that I have seriously considered and have thought about quite a bit for my LQ9.

Have you been back to the track since the swap to compare times? Just curious.

Not true. I'm using the regular 8.1L injectors on my TBSS intake with the TBSS rail and they are the same size. I have the TBSS injectors but didn't want to have to change the connectors.

I used the TBSS fuel rails and a corvette fuel filter to deal with the return and fpr since I didn't know where to buy or want to make a new crossover.
