If that dosent make sense now then I give up, lol.
I was confused because I've seen the throttle body version of those cars and I've seen them with carbs so I knew I wasn't getting something right!

Ok, now I dig ya! I was thinking cowl hood... between that, the polish and cleaners I had been applying earlier in the day... well never mind. I got it now!

No problem. Gotta ask...what does "B-Rad from the Bu" mean exactly. Be sure to post up some pics of your swap.

Do you have pics of the bottom? Post them up if you do.

LS6 intakes are flat across the bottom, LS1 intakes have a small hump from front to back. The ribbing on the bottom is also different as is the part number cast in the passenger side. Corvette intakes will not have the bronze sleeves pressed in for drive by cable throttle - you will have to provide them or use drive by wire.

I'm not aware of any LS6 intakes with EGR provisions but I may be wrong on that one.
