LS1 OR LS6 intake? Not to start another thread about this but i just picked up a 98 Vert SS from a member on this board, Listed in the info on the car was a LS6 intake but after reading a few threads looked at mine and it has that tube right behind the throttle body , In no way am i blaming the member i got the car from because he got the car in a trade and did not know the difference either. I just want to know how can i tell the LS6 intake with EGR that was available from SLP I hope thats what i have. Its on the Car so i cant look at the bottom to see if it is flat. Thanks for any info on this John..........

Your next step is to get rid of the EGR. 
That tube sticking down into the front of the manifold takes up a lot of space that could be used for airflow. 
Not to mention how much prettier it is under the hood when all that crap is gone.

yea they do. but how are they gunna know its missing? if cars came stock without it
i lived in texas.. and they care more bout cats then they do that stuff. i dont have it on my car. aslong as you dont have the SES light on. i think your fine without the EGR, and theres always somebody u can kick another 20 bux and they will overlook stuff
