I sent you another PM. Getting notifications of PM or post replies is slow to me for some reason from this site. I just sent a second PM with my email address if you want to shoot me an email.

Thumbs up LS1 intake

Thanks Bob! Intake is perfect!

Question: Is the LS1 steam tubes for the heads different from the truck steam tubes? I cant get mine to work with the LS1 intake. Wont seat down on the heads completely. I tried to rebend the tube, no luck. Do I need to buy the F-body unit?

Here is a picture.

I'm guessing that if the truck tube doesn't fit, then yeah you would need one from an f-body, or a Vette.
