I was wondering if there any proven benifits using thise intake on the 4.8/5.3/6.0?

 

Nope.....except that they look good, but the truck intake will run even with it all the way to 7000rpm

 

I think Blacksheep may disagree with you on that Yelo.

The LS6 intake DOES flow better at higher rpm. The LS1, LS6, and truck intakes have been flowed against each other and while the truck intake is better than the LS1 it is not better than the LS6.

I think StupidFast may be putting one on his stroker. Hopefully he'll get some results.

 

I'm curious to see some more results with the LS2 intake. I wonder if you could use the Multec II injectors, 97-98 Corvette rails/crossover, and an LS2 intake on a truck. I know that the TB is angled slightly on the LS2--I wonder if it's angled enough to clear the idler?

If I can ever get this $%#@#@ tranny in, I plan on doing headers and a car intake. Should be good for 30+ rwhp. Or more?!?!?

 

The LS2 intake on the SSR is actually the same height as the truck intake, so the idler pulley, and waterpump neck wouldn't be a problem, and it even uses the same injectors. It might make for an extremely easy swap, but nobody has done it yet. Also, I would like to see some flow #'s for the LS2 intake for both the corvette, and for the SSR.

 

It would be interesting to see the LS2 SSR intake results. The only thing about that intake is the opening is not a true 90mm. It is 90mm at the TB opening and necks down as it goes into the plenum. There was a picture in the LS2-LS7 forum a while back.

 

At HIGH rpm it's better.....above 6800rpm....most of us will never see the rpm's necessary to take advantage of it

but, hey...if you want the looks and the high-rpm performance go for it.....

 

On the graphs of the LS6 intake I saw, it was better in every aspect, not just high lift or high rpm.

 

I believe you're right, from what I remember. I couldn't find the graphs online anywhere, but I did find this post from the 2nd test w/ the different cams:

"The last time they did the test with the stock motor and switched the intakes to see the results now they switched out 3 cams with each intake...

That test with the 265 cam has to be a fluke. It was so close in the other tests, but 21hp off in that one? The other tests showed 3hp, and 9hp with the largest cam, and even then it had very similar toque (only 1 ft/lb diff).
