Default Newbie to the LS nation

Hi everyone, my name is Wayne, thanks for letting me be a part of your team.

I have been into fast vehicles all my life but I'm old school (44).

​I haven't ever owned an LS f-body but picked up a 2002 WS-6 from a friend that put a lot of time and money into building a nitrous car. He needed to free up some funds before finishing his car.
The motor was built by Janke Engines with forged and coated internals with fully worked LS2 heads. Long tubes without cats (but does have a 3" Y-pipe). The transmission (4L60E) is a Performa built level 3 with a 10.5 ", 3800 stall. The rear-end is a Ford 9", Detroit true trac w/moser 31 spline axels. It also has a full suspension build.

He never got around to doing the fuel system, intake, throttle body, coil packs ect. Its all still the factory setup.

I am curious what are the best options as far as fuel and intake seeing how there isn't any clearance in the Trans Am/Camaros...

I apologize if this post got off subject about introducing myself and needs to be moved to a different location.

Welcome to LS1Tech Wayne! Sounds like a well thought out build. Congrats on the purchase. Start a new thread over in Gen3 External section, and re-ask the question. You’ll get plenty of help over there, from folks that have been there-done that. Not a lot of help here in the intro section.
