Default intake for 2000 c5 corvette

I have a 1998 trans am that I'm selling and it has a ls6 intake on it, so i was wondering if I could change out the one on me vette for the ls6.( not sure if I even need it, does the 2000 vette come with a ls6 intake?) If I could change them out could I use the same coolant lines and have no problems? Thanks for the help.

Yes, you can change the intakes out. The 2000's did not have an LS6 intake, that wasn't until 01. The difference between Vette & F-body intakes 98-00 is there's no EGR on the Corvettes.

You can swap them out, but the honorable thing to do would be to let your buyer know it's got an LS1 intake on it, even though the Corvette intakes "look" just like an LS6.

You will need to swap the coolant lines over as well.

the buyer is not a car guy and he is getting a procharger, headers, cam, ws9 outlaw hood, and nice set of rims for 9 grand so he will be happy.

Regardless of what he's getting for 9 grand, he still needs to be notified the car has an LS1 intake on it.

ls1 intake came on the car originally, why make it a point to tell him? i mean if it was an 01-02 car then yeah let him know. but if its the stock peice then no need to mention it.
