Default Those of you with the LS1 intake swap

Of the few folks that have done car intake swaps with the LS1 intake instead of the LS6 which parts were you able to re-use from your truck intake and what did you do about the accessories? did you go car or keep the truck water pump and accessories?

ok I have seen a tone of write ups and in person results on the ls1 car intake swap. I can tell you right now your not going to get any performance out of it. Our truck intakes flow very well until you get over 6000rpm and then they can still do a decent job. I just wouldn't waste the time on doing it unless your just looking for a cleaned up engine compartment. IMO but it is your truck just thought I would throw that out their.

I would do the intake I posted about as an alternative to the LS6, it flows better and if you know the right people you can get it cheaper then the link I posted.
