What else?
 
I picked up a LS6 intake awhile back and I have a F-body water pump so what else will I need to do the swap? I'm assuming F-body fuel rails and crossover? What about the TB? Going on a 99 5.3 with return style fuel system.

Is the gain worth the trouble or should I just sell the intake/water pump and stick with the truck intake?

I'm still deciding if its worth it. Trying to find out besides what I have what else do I need?

heres my 2000 with an ls1 intake, mallory fpr, ls1 injectors, ls1 fuel injector pigtails, aluminum fuel rails with steel braided lines. i cut up the stock rails and used some tube adaptors with an fittings that go back to the stock lines. it caught on fire a few days before this is the reason for the soot on the fire wall http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c3...1/100_1014.jpg

A Speartech idler pulley relocation bracket about $85.00, I used a water pump for a 07 NNBS think part # 12600767 about $150.00, it cleared my dirve by cable TB and a top raditaor hose off an 07 NNBS part # 19130027 about $52.00. I used the stock fuel rails off a 04 Z06, and an aftermarket fuel pressure regulator with a return line and car style injectors when we did my LS6 swap.

Here's a picture with the water pump, fuel rails and injectors installed.

i really dont see too much difference between this and the truck intake, other than a bunch of mounting brakets and vac ports on the truck intake... does the ls1 intake flow better or something?
