Ls6 intake

You'll have to shave off the ribs at the bottom of your LS6 intake so it clears the steam vent tubes. Also, it doesn't have a provision for EGR, but most people just delete it.

Yea, after you are all done with your mods send your PCM to get tuned by Frost who is a member of this site. You fill out a form of all the mods you have and he'll tune your PCM for you.

Here is a pic of the bottom of the LS6 intake. The red highlighted part should be removed...
And here is a vid of my install of the intake. Part one is no longer available but in the video below (part 2) skip to 1:24 to see a bit of how I did it on mine...

Ok guys I got a little problem. I picked up a ls6 intake for 250 bucks and did everything blah blah. Well the intake I got came off a c5. There are no brass fittings for the fbody tb cable bracket only empty holes that do nothing. How do I get the brass fittings out of the ls1 intake? Or do I really need this bracket? If it is not necessary I will just put the tb on and be done for the night an just find some brass sleeves at the store in the future. What do I do????

Nvm last post got it figured out. But now there is a brand new oil pressure sender that reads 0 on dash. Car runs really rough. Like REALLY rough as in I don't want to start it. I scanned it for codes and only throwing egr which I was before. Could the injectors not be seated all the way? I don't remember how far down they were before

Ok I think I found the problem. Passenger side rear section of valve cover has a tube coming out of it. The rubber hose that goes on top of that got pulled off probably when I put the intake back on but I wasn't paying attention to this. When I went to put it back on it crumbled from being 13 years old. So I will replace that. Is that probably the culprit? The car was running like it has a cam which it has the stock one. It seems that it was shaking so much that the water pump now leaks I had to replace the oil pressure switch because the old one broke on removal of ls1 intake. I put the new one in and the harness was a pita to plug into the new one and now there is no pressure on the gauge. But I will recheck that when I fix the hose. When I just turn the key on it doesn't cycle with the rest of the gauges. It does move a tiny bit though. Please give me some feedback and I will try again tomorrow
