On a 99 and up truck, can you use the stock throttle body seal for a Volant intake? I sold a used Volant intake kit off my old truck to a guy and he said the stock piece (rubber Seal) wouldn't work with the Volant tube. I thought everything was there when I sent it out but I guess there was no seal on the tube and he can't get his stock one to fit over it. What is so different about the rubber seal for the Volant tube versus the rubber seal for the stock intake tube?

Thanks,
I want to make this right with him, but I can't believe the stock rubber seal won't work??

Is this billy from maine who had the 10 second lightning???? Whats up man. I meet you at the track. I had the 01 silverado red with a radix blower on it. Nice to see you found your way over here. As for you ? i dont really know but i would say that you could use it.

 

Yep it is me, I sold the Lightning this summer.
Got my Denali down to 12.7's and then just got rid of that for the V.
Something new for this year and I can't wait for the track to open up..lol

DAMB. 12.7 is good for the denali. That V look killer. Who is doing your work???? Ya i have a new set up underway right now. And i can not wait till the track opens. I was out for most of last season due to trans failure and eventually a burnt up pistion. But this year will be diffrent. Much diffrent

 

The Denali was fun, but to have gone from 12.7's down to the 11's which I would have wanted this year would have had to do more than I wanted. I am hoping to do all the work to the V myself except for the tuning. I did everything on the Denali except for the tuning and Westers did a great job of that for me. I am shooting for 12's for the V and if the rear end holds then I will try for 11's with it.
So you have a lot planned for your truck it sounds like..
Should be a fun year for us both.. See you when the snow melts and the track is open for some fun..

 

Ya it should be a fun year. What are you using for tuning. If you are using LS1 edit then ive got the tuner for you

 

I think I am going to give Westers a shot again, I have a credit with them anyway and Lyndon did a great job on the Denali.
