Intake upgrade on ls1 what can I expect? Planning on running something similar to this setup
Edelbrock pro-flo XT efi manifold
Not sure on what brand but 90mm tb and a granatelli mass air flow sensor and bigger air bellow and cold air on my 1999 corvette I'm wanting a rough estimate on what I might pick up and if this manifold will actually even fit my car

Skip the Granatelli MAF, really not a company you want to buy anything from. A friend made the mistake of buying one for his LT1 ran it awhile till I found out and told him to remove it and we decided to document the way it miss-reports airflow.
I installed it on my car and went to drive to a stretch of road I could log WOT and it died before I could even get there.
What else is done to the car?

Pretty Sure Pro-Flow XT will not fit under stock 99 C5 Hood!
Better of waiting for MSD or FAST 102W/ Medium Length Runners,
Or shorter race runners if you have engine mods for it.
I have 99 C5 Also, Patiently Waiting! LOL!

I could buy a cowl hood and it would be awesome if anybody knew where I could get one for less than 850$ since I'll have to have it painted too but I'm waiting until I'm out of highschool and have my 83 chevy running before I do anything internally to the motor just bolt ons for now and any other things that you guys think would help would be appreciated

Do you think a 3 inch cowl could clear that or would I have to go 5? I didn't imagine it being that big and if not holley makes a slightly shorter version I'm sure would
