Default Need More Air to Engine

Any suggestions on what type air intake system I should use on my 93 LT1. Does anyone know about changing the throttle body from dual port to single port off of 350 vortech with adapter?

To be nice....

I assume you meant 93. I just cut my lid. I had a Vortex Air Rammer on my 91....same performance as the MUCH CHEAPER cut lit. I cut it myself...for around $0.00.

No idea about the TB...

You were correct 1993. Do you have a picture of your cut lid showing where you cut it? Does SLP make one for the vette like the Camaro lid?

Just a site I found quick with a pic....He cut out only where the slits where...I went to the outer most edge possible...made sure it would still hold the filter....and cut there...
