I'm running the stock manifold with my current setup. If I ever come across a good cheap ls6 intake, I'll hop on it. But for now the LS1 intake is fine.

Ah ok, man why waste the $$ when you can p/u an ls6 manny pretty cheap now. the LSX doen't flow so much better that you would see ne significant gain over the LSX.

800 bux is just ridiculous.
