I wonder how much weight added with the fiberglass, not that it matters but I'm sure it gained a lb. Or 2

Thanks. I'm hunting for a deal on a TBSS intake now. I know that the stock throttle body is 87mm. Anybody know if it will accept a 92?

I ran a Truck intake and went to the LS6 intake. I have changed back to the truck intake. There is a huge seat of the pants change on the low end still pulls just as hard on the top end.

Waiting for spring to come, I want to to take ot to the track and see the change.
