Ported stock TB is all you need. Are you running the stock intake or have you upgraded to the LS6? Thunder racing and new era port them on teh regular, check 'em out.

Shaner is not a board sponsor, so any contact or price information is going to be edited. Bans will also be dealt out since this is the warning lol.

The price of a 90/90 setup wouldn't justify the ~20rwhp you pick up from it IMO. Port a stocker. Besides, you've already got an LS6 intake, don't put it to waste!

That's not nessasary. In fact most would say it's dangerous for your motor.

Why exactly is it dangerous for your motor? I think if you scratched the surface where the stuffs gonna stick to really well it would never come out.

So the main goal is just to have an even line all the way to the blade and eliminate that lip?
