Default ??? for guys using the factory LS1 lid

how did you connect it to the tb? ...the opening is short and wide - I have the baffles as well so if need be, whats the best way to plug up the baffles and have a smooth transition to the round outlet?

TIA

I used 3" Fernco Couplers from lowes. They cost 2 bucks and are just black 3" in/3" out rubber couplers and I only used 1. I had to use a heat gun on the TB side for about 30 seconds, but after that, no issues since but like 96lt1m6 said...we all use aftermarket.

I have pics and notes on my page of how I did mine. Used aftermarket lid and fernco coupling as mentioned.
