LSX comming soon
Ill have the LSX Intake Manifold in about 1-3 months. But its a for sure thing.
|
Do you currently have an LS6, if so I know someone who'll take it off your hands. ;)
|
01s n 02s have ls6 manifolds
|
Make sure you buy the FAST or TPIS TB to see any sort of gains...
From what I hear though, the $1400 isn't worth it... |

I dont know Ive heard people say It does have the LS6 but then people say no its the LS1, IMO its the LS1 but I dont know you figure it out.

its a Gen 3 motor done and done
|
2 ways you can tell if its an LS6 is by if its off a Vette it doesnt have the EGR hole on the top. The second you would have to take it off to look at the bottom, but if the bottom is recessed then its an LS1 and if its flat on the bottom then its the LS6.
|
I don't see the EGR behind the tb so that's a good sign.
|
me not knowing the LSx based engines too well im guessing the LS1 and LS6 bore/stroke is different? Yes/No? If not its the exact same motor in a nut shell. Im still curious on why they made the bore smaller on the LS1 and the stroke longer. Not that its necessarily a bad thing *cough* 305 *cough* but cubes being equal (or almost equal LS1 vs Gen 1 or 2 350) id opt for the bigger bore shorter stroke.
|
The LS1 and LS6 really are basicly the same engine, the major differences are the heads, cam, exhaust.
|
ya same engine in my book
|
kinda like the old engines were available with 250 hp and up depending on options

The bottom however is much different on a LS6 - Check www.ls1howto.com and read the article regarding the intake swap, it has some good pictures as to the differences... |
so then its a ls1????

I'm pretty sure it is, because I know on the LS6 intake, the EGR tube thing isn't there on top of the intake manifold. I know for a fact that 01-02 came with the LS6 IM and the 98-00 came with the LS1 manifold. You'll see a nice little gain going from the LS1 IM to the LSX IM.

I called the previous owner and ask if it was or was not the ls6, And they said it was the LS6 it was an after market modification. The ran a 13.2 at AZ Elivation.

I was told that since I already have the LS6 not to go with the LSX, it does work better but the price is to much to pay for just a few extra H/P so instead Im getting the Jet Chip, or some kind of bad *** chip that and I can have it alot sooner.
|
get a reprogramed pcm
|
I want the covette heads now. I love that look of corvette under the hood. How much would the LS6 conversion come to? A nice 4-5k I assume. If so then never mind. :banghead:
|
check www.sdpc2000.com
|
corvette fuel rail covers??? u mean? If ure gonna do a set of heads....Id look around n get a better performing set then Ls6
|
off the shelf chips are gay and a waste of money i dont care what arch says spend ur money else where
|
on the obdII chips don't do a thing since you can't replace the chip
|
case closed :nana: :lolsign:
