Default Question?

What kind of gains can I expect to see by bolting on a LS6 manifold to my 99 Z? Also do these units come with everything needed to bolt on or do I need anything else to make it work? <img src="images/icons/confused.gif" border="0">

I think most are seeing like 10 hp on a stock engine. You can get them with the proper emissions hook ups for '99's. If you plan to get a cam and/or heads it is a must do if you want to wring out all the power you can.

Thanx for the info! <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0"> Now another question this new Holley manifold that was designed by Lingenfeter is the same thing in aluminum or am I missing something there? <img src="images/icons/confused.gif" border="0"> Can I expect the same gains as the LS6 manifold or more?

The casting is molded after the LS6 manifold. The Holley manifold is meant to be ported.

Ok so as a bolt on mod it would be the same gain as the LS6 piece,but if I ported it I could potentially pick up some more hps correct? <img src="images/icons/confused.gif" border="0">
