Dorman LS6 intake 615-900 Been looking for a LS6 intake for some time now and I cant seem to find a deal on them. But I noticed that Dorman sells an LS6 intake and I am able to find them for about 250.00. Are they worth it?

It looks like it performs more like the ls1 intake to me.
if you're going for hood clearance, yes worth it considering that LS6 intakes go for $400 lately.
If you can fit it, I'd run a shaved truck intake or a tbss intake.

Why? They are in the business of making inexpensive parts, not performance parts. It would be great but also odd if they had flow numbers. Now true, they are going after the performance crowd here, but again - they aren't a performance company.

I see what you're saying but this guy is claiming it's as good as OEM but doesn't have anything to back it up.

I'm not vouching for it, just saying that the rep said it does not have any fitment or performance issues. And that's basically all he can say. Now there might be some casting flash/residue that affects performance, but nothing that is going to cause actual drive-ability problems. Does it REALLY fit as well as an OEM one? Dunno. And in my opinion I think going with a good used one is a better idea. Buy cheap buy twice I believe is the old saying.

Guys, all the pertinent points are discussed here in the original thread. No sense in rehashing them.
