Just bought ls6 intake!!!
Just bought ls6 intake!!! I think I got a pretty good deal, I just bought a Brand new never used ls6 intake with stock throttle body, fuelrail with 28 lb fuel injectors. All brand new. Ohh and new gaskets. All for $385 shipped. Can and should I use the new 28 lb injectors and fuel rail thats on it? I have a 99 that comes stock with 26lb injectors. Can I just pull of my old intake and leave all the stuff on it and put my new one on with the fuel rails on it and use the 28lb fuel injectors and all? Or is there a difference? Im hoping my stock wiring to the injection sensor thing will be the same for the ones coming off the 28lb injectors? Will I need to get it tuned for the different injectors and stuff? Here is a pic of the one I bought
Yes you can run them, someone did it with a custom cam and made some awesome numbers, given that they had other mods too. But yes you can do it but I recommend a tune afterwards to take advantage of this upgrade.

Did you get the ls6 coolant block-off kit for the install too, or are you gonna trim the tabs off underneath?
Theres a fuel line disconnect tool you can buy at the autoparts store, I forget the size. Unless your installing a cam IMO there would be no benefits to switching the injectors at this point, maybe save them for down the road. Its usually good to tune for the proper size injector.

What if I just unbolted the stock fuel rail from the intake and reuse it on the new one? Than I could set it out of the way and just use it on the new intake right? and yea I am just going to trim the tabs off.
You'll need a cap plate for the EGR for now until you install some LT's. I know there are a few vendors who sell them or you can make something to cover the hole on the stock exhaust manifold. Most likely you will throw an SES, you'll just need to have that turned off via a tuner.
On install, you need some tape or cloths pins to hold up the back 4 screws of the manifold when removing. Also be careful about the connector in the back, you don't wanna break it. There are tons of threads on this install on here, do a search (i'm sure you probably already have) and you'll find step by step directions. Take your time with cause your SOL if you break the connector in the back, you'll need to buy a new one.
