So you do have something that your thinking about changing on your combination, since you said " I really don't have any big plans to change the engine combo." I guessing an intake change because of the increase hood height.

I have no plans of changing anything. I will leave the intake the way it is. Tony Mamo worked over my Miniram so I will leave it alone. But the taller hood does open up intake options.

I would love to see more sheet metal intakes on ltx cars here. Like the ltx camaro guys do and make 800, 900rwhp out of their blown ltx cars (power like the FI LSx vette guys make on this website).
I think 'Hogan' was a company that makes custom sheet metal intakes for LTx. Very pricey, but much different than 'just another 800 rwhp LSx build'.
Im not sure if you would need a high rise hood for these kinds of intakes, but definitely opens up more options!
