LS6 Intake and AFR? I have been thinking of poutting a LS6 intake on my 5.3 motor. It has cam and heads and has been tuned on the dyno. Would putting the LS6 intake on my truck change my AFR at all?

you're already pushing it, you want it retuned. the FAST intake is really fantastic as flow goes, so you really want the engine to take full advantage of it's capabilities. also, if you get a bigger TB, you will have a bunch of other tables to alter in the process of tuning anyway. Find someone with tuning software, you can get it done in 30 mins if they know what they're doing.
