Default Difference Between Corvette and Camaro (V6) Intake

Hello All,

This may be a really stupid question, so I appologize.



Application:
CHEVY CORVETTE 5.7L 97-00 W. 2PCS FILTER

Do you think that would work with the V6 Camaro (with slight modification of course.)

Possibly, are you wanting to put that directly to the throttle body, or run a pipe down in front of the radiator & condensor ?

yep it's only a filter and tubing.

Only problems will be locating it and actually fitting the tubing to the TB/MAF or where ever. Might be cheeper easier to by the filters seperatly and get some angled silicon tubing to the shape size you need.

Well, I'm getting the kit for free. That's why I was wondering. I was looking at there products and the Vette was the closest to my engine. The have applications for Mustangs, etc, but I figured I should go with this.

Do you think I will see any gain in power with it?

you will probably have to find some type of reducer to go from the pipe to your throttle body.
im sure you will pick up some power. might also look into some way of blocking off the engine heat if it is close to the engine

Have you ever seen the engine bay of the V6. There is a ridiculous amount of room between the engine and the front of the car.

Don't think heat will be a big problem. The left would is going to be right in front of the condensor for the AC, which is always cold. :-)
