Default Step by Step instructions for intake manifold removal

For those who are planning to remove their intake manifold to get it ported or for other modifications, we have created step by step removal instructions.



Most weekend mechanics can do it themselves in an hour or less.

Here is the link to that page on our web site http://www.peakspeedshop.com/page6.php

Having your intake manifold and throttle body ported can be one of the lowest cost ways for you to gain more horsepower. For more information on our porting and powdercoating services, go to http://www.peakspeedshop.com/.

Here's a question for ya.....

On the front of the intake, behind the throttle body....
What are these 2 hose locations for ??
One is on the right you called #5
One is on the left you called #7b


What do these go to ??
I'm doing a LS3 intake swap onto a LY6 6.0L and I'm not sure what these are for.

Connection #5 goes to the Fuel Vapor Solenoid. You should find Post #21 on this thread helpful: https://ls1tech.com/forums/generatio...-system-2.html It is #729 and #730 on the schematic.

Connection #7b goes to the valley cover. It is hose #716 on that same schematic in that thread.
