wow, I forgot about this thread! The pics helped me figure out exactly how I was going to do my swap a while back.

But I changed again to the Vic Jr. instead.

: The LS1/LS6 is much more aesthetically pleasing. Who cares what performs better as long as it looks better...right guys?

maybe i missed this along the years but what are the gains from running a intake like this?

will this intake still alow the cylinders that usually go lean ( 7,8 i think) to still go lean?

why not run at intake like parish has? (im not sure of the name of it)
