Default how much should i expect to pay for ls6 intake
i have a 2000 ws6 and plan on doing the ls6 intake swap very soon. should i buy new or used and what should i expect to pay for each? is it worth the extra money to get a FAST or typhoon intake mani? thanks

325 shipped is the average. fast intake would be only for a heads/cam car IMO

I'm selling my ls6 intake for 315 locally, and just picked up a FAST 92/92 for my h/c build.

IMO anything over $300 for an ls6 intake is a rip off. i bought a brand new one off someone here for $300 shipped.

Are you saying the deal you got is the norm ? I've never seen an ls6 intake go for less than 275 (obviously used).

300ish IS the price people generally pay.

No that is not the norm esp since it was brand new... but I was just trying to say you CAN find intakes for $300 shipped (used or not). Therefore paying over $300 is a rip off.

If you want one right away 300-325 shipped norm, if a person is in no hurry they could find one cheaper. All depends on the rush.

I wouldn't pay more than 300 shipped. If you sit on it you will find one for a very reasonable price.

$300 is the norm on any forum, if you look $250-$275 shipped is out there. Just be patient and watch out for scammers.
