10 Attachment(s)
Well here is the proccess in order to take it apart and prep the new manifold to be put on. From a stock LS1 intake manifold to an LS6 intake manifold, EGR Delete, Coolant Pipe Revision etc!
Part one, Start unbolting ! Part Two, take of off fuel rail cover and vaccuum lines and more ... Part Three, take a break, cause you dont want to break poor ol' oil pressure sending unit! Part 4, Show off the Z06 intake manifold that you custom painted high gloss 500 degree ceramic paint w/ clear coat and make fun of how the old one looks plain! Part 5, about to go to sleep and finish this tomorrow!!!! Attachment 154703 Attachment 154704 Attachment 154705 Attachment 154706 Attachment 154707 Attachment 154708 Ported TB! Attachment 154709 Old Manifold! Attachment 154710 New Manifold Before! Attachment 154711 New Manifold After paint job! Attachment 154712 :D:D:D |
wat is the port job on that TB, i dont know what the stock LS6 throttle body size is? Is that your old LS1 TB? Looking good BTW
|
yes thats my LS1 throttle body that I ported myself ;) the LS6 has a different set up and wont work with ls1 applications I believe. My TB is now a 78MM bore instead of the stock 75mm ;)
