I'm running a/c but I had to cut the frame and I'm in the process of boxing it back in and getting a/c lines made. This isn't the best pic but to get an idea here u go.

Nah, sorry I don't I did this like a year ago. I would check with them though I think it's called a close radius 90 degree elbow. I think I used a 3 1/2 elbow and just boiled it in hot water to stretch it over the LS6 MAF and TB.

this elbow would work for you.

its a short radius, 90... 4" at the TB, 3.5" at the MAF

or you can get one just like it thats 4" and 4"....

this one has been cut down, it was a bit longer on the throttlebody, but i cut it shorter.

Did you do the wiring or someone else? Does the gear selection indicator work in your cluster. I'm helping a friend install a LS1 into a 2000 S10 truck and that was one of the things we were wondering about.

Im doing the same swap and am going to Jared at current performance wiring for my harness. I have heard nothing but good things about his harnesses and yes everything such as the gear indicator will still work.
