Ok, i know its a noob question but how hard is it to switch the LS1 Intake Manifold with the LS6 Intake? What all do you have to do and how long will it take? What settings do you have to change with the computer and what not after you finish bolting it on? Thanx

Why not this? I think it flows much better then the Weiand, FAST, or LS6. Plus there is no heak soak, that only applies to intakes with coolant passages flowing through them (like LT1s and SBCs). Ours is very cool to the touch after a run down the 1/4 mile. Even at idle it doesn't get hot, probably as hot as the LS1/LS6.

bang for the buck = ls6 period.
check the FAQ for my intake manifold test.
and ls1charged check the results of a ported weiand against the ls6, then add the extra weight and heat soak potential of the aluminum. some bargain huh
