On the 1998 vette, it has an ls1, does it have the ls1 intake manifold or the ls6 intake mani?

I currently drive a 2002 camaro z28, ls1a4 with ls6 intake mani (cat back, cai, thermostat, bellow, dyno tune, factory freak engine, made 361whp, 379wtq, people don't believe me but then I walk their 02 vette, or win by a nose against a 02 z06 vette).

I was going to give my car to my brother, and get this one for myself, but I was worried with out the ls6 manifold, that with a catback, thermostat, bellow and intake installed on the car, and then dyno tuned, I would get the same improvement over stock.

LS6 intake manifolds didn't come on LS1's until 2001 I believe. I'm sure someone will correct me if I am wrong. They are not really that expensive though. I'm sure you could pick one up for about $300. Get that vette!

Some 2000 models cars got them, but as posted everything after 2001 came with the LS6 intake.

as stated above, 2001 was the transition year, if you look around you can buy them for $300 or less. I just bought one locally w/ throttle body for $250
