I have a ls6 right now. I was curious if this was still a good choice. I am looking at building a LSX 427 with procharger.

yes their is mixed reviews about it-

my porter in oz reckons they need a bit of work to get going- thats alright to me-

lot of reviews comes fron n/a guys-they say it robs a bit down low-to me it does not matter as it is a fi car and only for race- so i am not interested in the low rpm loss if u know what i mean-

others reckons it works well in fi aplications- besides i got mine @ a good price so i said stuff it and give it a go-

Again anyone care to share what are the advantages of going with the wilson elbow and the 105MM TB? I have a aaronintake elbow and stock TB now. With me going 408 and single S91 should I change?

We use LS6, LS2, and LS7.

I do not like the lack of a short turn radius on the fabricated elbows that fit under a stock hood.

I also have a new in the box FAST 90 intake. Will this work with high boost? If i dont use it then i am thinking a vic jr. Which setup do you think would be better? The vic jr setup is cheaper than the FAST is it not?

That is really what I am looking for. The LSX block is the platform I am going to use.

In that case we are using the LS7 intake on my car and our shop car. (which are both 427ci LSX)
