So with this intake you can run the marine injectors, and the run the Corvette throttle body with the harness? I am just making sure because I was looking a building a 6.0 I have for my truck with ported heads and a mild cam. Thanks

doesnt have to be the marine injector. any of the ones that fit your truck will work from the info i have gathered (as long as you use the tbss fuel rail). i plan on running my regular 8.1's when i do the intake swap with my 243's

Just bought the xlink tonight and waiting on a guy from tbssowners.com to ship me the intake. I will install everything once it all comes in. I'm very excited to test this

On your truck I'd bet you'll see a 10-15hp and 20ftlbs of torque gain which is great since I doubt you'll lose any drivability out of it. It should be an over all gain once you get it dialed it. You'll notice the difference right away when tuning it.

btw, got my idle clip. I'll be posting that tomorrow.

Is there a 90mm cable driven throttle body that will work with the LS2 intake? Didn't the Corvette used to come with an 87mm cable throttle body?

Yeah, they make them for the 90mm fast intake that f-body guys use.
