its a good intake ,but I bet you can find 1 like it used in the used parts section for cheaper.a used BBK intake will work also.buy a TB to match the intake opening size if you don,t port it larger.

If I remember correctly, there is a 1mm difference between the LS6 and the Weiand.

I don't have any before and after dyno results between the stock LS1 intake and the Weiand. Sorry.

i have this intake as well. What i liked about it is the fact that the bottom has a plate that can be removed for extensive port work..Plus if you plan on FI, i like the idea of having a METAL intake instead of composite PLASTIC...

sorry no dyno numbers.....
