6.0L intake manifold question I am having problems with the search as usual.
Can you tell me: I hear the truck LS intake manifolds are actually a better performing manifold. Can one be put on our motors if using a huge cowl hood?

GM High Tech Performance Magazine did a comparison a few issues back comparing the LS1, LS6, LQ4/LQ9 (6.0 L Truck) and the FAST Manifold I believe using three different aftermarket cams. The bottom line is that the truck manifold will perform better than the LS1 throughout the range with all cams. The truck manifold will perform with (approximately equally) the the LS6 and FAST through about 5,000 RPM's and then the LS6 and FAST start to pull ahead. This is my recollection of the gist of the article.
The main problem with the truck manifold on a car is hood clearance.
