i didnt have to grind the fins down on my new LS6 intake when i did the swap, no leaks or anything. everything just bolted right up no problem, maybe SLP fixed that little problem.

it just so happens i have an LS6 intake laying in my room,



is this the bracket? if so, its on all LS6/LS1 intakes, it holds the throttle cable/cruise cable if you dont have ASR. if you have ASR it only holds the throttle cable. all LS6 intakes came with the same **** the LS1's came with. as long as it came off another F-body. if it came off a vette, well idk.
