Lid question
Lid question Is the base for the V6 cars the same as the ls1 cars ? i picked up a full set up from a v6 for free and was wondering if the base is the same or not. also is it really worth doing this mod from a k&n CAI ? if i remember correctly merv said that he picked up .2 of a second. anyone else with such luck with this swap ? thanks
Not sure on whether the v6 and LS1 setup is all the same. But, I did notice a little bit going from my Moroso cai to the lid. Don't really have any track proof though. Conditions were too far off, and driving ability was greatly improved between the trips with each. lol
yes, i also picked up 1.8mph and 2 tenths done at the track same day within minutes of swap. you will have a few people that will talk crap about the lid vs. the cai but they never did the swap!
those that have done it know it works....sorry i am not the kind of guy that tries to test every little mod however i have a 6 yr relationship with my car and she is very consistant.

Can you post a pic..for some reason I think it's smaller. Besides that fact I don't think you can get it under the stock hood of a Camaro.
ill post pics tonight when i get home. it looks to be the same size. the top part is different however thus why im asking the question. i shoulda posted pics of it when i wrote it out sorry guys 
i know it wont fit under the stock hood of the lt1 camaro's without extensive modification but i am a fabricator and welder so ill see what i can do

The shoud is the same but the lid itself is different and off center.
look at this lid for v6 it is off center to the drivers side,base is the same though.

You just get a 3.5" silicone coupler from eBay. Or, I got a 4" to 3.5" reducer coupler, so it wouldn't be so difficult going from the oval tb to the round MAF. Worked great for me.
