Has anyone heard any good/bad things about the new edelbrock victor carb'd intake for the LS1's? I might be picking up a complete 6.0 that was in a bad fire so all the polymer parts are melted and Im going to need a new intake for it. Its going in a '74 Nova so emissions are out the window and I just thought about running a carb to get past all the expensive *** EFI crap since I wont have it all from the start. Im going to be aiming for 500hp to the wheels on motor and a big shot of nitrous on top of that.

 

I just did a search and got alot of good info. Guess I should have done that to begin with but feel free to post up any results you have seen with this intake.

 

Lots of reading

if you are wanting 500 at the wheels, i wouldnt buy a running motor, IMO.
you are gonna need a built motor. heads, cam and cubes.

i run the GM intake on my car(very similar) with good results.
