Default LS6 Vette Intake into F body Pic walkthru

Heres a quick walk thru for anyone swapping a Vette intake into an F body, main diffrence from the Jim X install is the A/C vent will need a new vaccum location since the Vette intake doesnt include a fitting in the rear of the intake. If you have any questions feel free to ask, thought it might come in handy in the future to someone else. One more thing to add, I deleted EGR and have no codes yet kinda odd considering what everyone usually says. Enjoy.

Are you sure the Vette intake doesn't have the vacuum port in the rear? Mine did.

I tried looking for a casting number, but since it was painted, it has been sanded down. The only difference between the vette and f-body LS6 intakes, should be the brass threaded fitting for the throttle cables (vettes don't have it due to drive-by-wire).

I was looking at getting an intake off a ZO6, but what modifications would need to be done so that it would work on my SS? Is there something to do with the tb?

There's a special on corvetteforums.com for the LS6 intake with all the coolant caps and such for $350. I was going to jump on that, but now i'm not sure if that's going to work???

The SLP LS6 intake will have all the right stuff. Besides, the SLP one isn't made by SLP, it's a GM intake with the EGR stuff. Since you didn't keep your EGR in place, that's more than likely not a SLP intake.
