i think i read where it has more low end torque(to pull the heavy trucks) than the ls6 intake but didn't make as much power as the ls6

x2, they make more low end torque due to runner length but no where near as much HP

they work very well. I've yet to see one truck on PT.net that went faster at the track with a ls6 manifold swap. Just looks better.

They don't fit under a f-body cowl without some surgery. Not worth hacking up the car for a truck intake over an ls6 intake.
