Professional products was supposed to make a carb intake for the LS, but alas, nada...
Ive always wondered same thing. Pp makes manifolds for just bout as any motor, i think even seen for pontiac motors.
Even jegs makes or has there own line of manifolds. But no ls manifolds.
I been wanting to try the holley l92 plenum hi rise intake. I hear can use like tunnel ram with a single or dual carbs. Just by changing tops.

I love Edelbrock's carbs. After dealing with Holley's idiosyncrasies for years, I just gave up. I bought a 600 Edelbrock from a buddy, adjusted the idle circuits for the highest rpm, backed em off a 1/16th and that was it. It was the best running carb I'd ever had.

I tried 3 Holley's, a 600, 650 and a 700 nothing would work on that lil 350 sbc with a .454 in/ex with a 280 adv dur. Plopped the eddy on and never touched it for 3 years.

I still prefer a q-jet though... (Hides from poop-flinging) It's the sound of a properly functioning Q-Jet that get's my goat.

No "We" were talking about intakes and carbs, you came in and acted like a douche. Yes I got a bit off topic, point taken.

It's so cool that I got to be the first person on this board to get off topic. I'm so Awesome!

Glad to see that not everyone on this board is like you...

...Been lurking on this board for 2 years before I even signed up, make 2 posts and I'm already having to deal with forum police... Nice.

My apologies to Butler, the OP.
