taking the go fast stuff of the car is just not.. that rare

 

how can you tell its an ls6 intake?
it did look alittle taller to me, but they are almost identical.

 

the crossover pipe beetwean the heads is diffirent from the stock one that was on my 98 car,

and the EGR valve is still there

 

It has an EGR, so that makes it an LS1 intake. But theres no MAF. Are you sure it doesnt have the o2 sensors? Maybe you missed them?

 

i am 100 % sure i have looked up and down the exhaust and had my cosin look to incase i missed them.
and the egr is not hooked up to anything, can i take it off?

 

The crossover tube looks the same on my 99 so I dont know what youre talking about. Even if it was an LS6 intake, they dont have to be changed, and the pics at with the intake on would not allow you to see the differences anyway. Maybe youre talking about the TB bypass, which is very evidently done. Not to mention everything is a little different on 98 models it seems.

 

What do you mean its not hooked up, Im looking at a picture of it hooked up.

 

ok so can i take off the egr?

 

yeah it goes in to the intake but its not hooked up to the exhaust. it has a blocking plate.

 

Oh ok, then ya you can take it off once you have the block off plate for the intake as well. Speed Inc. sells them.

 

it might be hard to see but look closely and you can see its not connected.

 

ok found the web site. thanx for the info. i ordered my part.

 

Hey dood, that picture shows the EGR is hooked up to the header. Whether or not the EGR is still programmed in and functioning I dont know. I think what your looking at is the block off for the AIR system, which it kinda doesn't look like you have on there. Its also a component commonly pulled out.

 

the egr goes into the top of the intake right? then goes to a part thats connected to the pass side head, and then goes to the headers? it is not connected to the headers, if you look at the pic the tude is past the header pipe with a block off plate.

 

it's still an ls1 intake, not LS6. It is almost certain that it was a heavily moded car and was de-modded to be traded off.

 

yeah it does, maybe the SLP edition sence it has the EGR also?

 

Ya one hose goes to the the top of the intake, then to the valve, then another hose goes to the header. Are you saying that that the hose that should go to the header has a block off plate? Becasuse it looks like the hose is still bolted on to something. Does the header have the provisions for an EGR?

Now if you dont have a MAF and you dont have o2's, then you have to be running on an SD tune, but what Im not sure of is if an SD tune eliminates the EGR. However I dont understand why if theres an SD tune in it, the EGR wouldnt have been deleted. Of course it kinda sounds like this car was thrown back together so I dont know.

Try this, disconnect the EGR just by the wires, and drive the car around for a day and see if you get a check engine light. If you dont then its been programmed out and it can be yanked for sure. If the light does pop up then you have to program it out or at least leave it plugged in to the valve, but you can still unplug the hose from the intake and block it off.

I dont know what you guys see that makes you think its an LS6 intake, but get us the casting number off of the intake so we can figure out if it is an LS6 or not.

 

yeah the tube that goes down to the header is blocked off. i know what your looking at, its the bolts that hole the blockoff plate on.
there are no provisions for an egr on the headers.
the numbers on the intake are.....12560688 and the heads are 853 heads

 

Heads and intake......wait for it......both LS1......ya what a let down, I know. Then Id just do like I suggested for the EGR before you go yanking the whole thing off.

 

just curious but what is the part circled in the pic? i know it has something to do with the fuel.
