LS1 intakes did not come on 2001-2002 F-body's but that looks like an LS1 intake. now there are some with the EGR revision LS6 intakes out there, but we really need to see the bottom. if the bottom is flat then it is an LS6 if has a "hump" then it is an LS1

Sooo is the bottom flat?...... Part # would've already given you an answer.
I'm sure he didn't let a ls6 go for 220$ when you can easily get 3-375$ for it.
If it is an ls1 (which it looks like to me) refund asap, seeing that they are worth about
75-160$ at most..

So he mislabeled an ls1 intake as an ls1 intake? Time to get ebay and PayPal involved. This is baloney.

That looks to me like a ls1 intake with a plugged EGR hole... but the pic is **** quality so its hard to tell. You cannot have an ls1 intake on a 2001 camaro (not stock anyway) so something is mislabeled. As everyone said a part number or a pic of the underside would help decide for sure.

I just sold an ls1 intake on here for $90, so if its a ls1 intake you paid over 2x too much! Do everything you can to get your money back.

Negative. ALL 01-02 Fbodies received LS6 intakes.

From the pic, just hope it's an SLP LS6 intake with the EGR hole before you go ballistic.

well seeing as his description read I removed this intake from a 2001 ls1 camaro. Yes either he didnt remove it from a 2001 camaro or he made up the year. some people dont know the difference between a ls1 and ls6 intake and with out the heads and intake its just a ls1.



I dont know if has a flat bottom yet I havent recieved it yet nor a email from them with the part number. It kinda looked like an slp when I saw it thats why I posted trying to get a forsure.

Ill let you guys know when I know

I doubt that's a slp..I beleive those are alittle more than a regular ls6. They are not making them anymore last I knew, and their hard to get a hold off. I've seen those going for $400. Theirs no way he had a buy it now price of 220$. Either he's an idiot or he's trying to pull a quick one.
