LS6 intake installed
Here's a picture of the LS6 intake i installed on my '98. I had it powdercoated woth something called "near chrome". I think it came out pretty good.

Kudos to you!!
Was the Z06 intake much of a difficult installation for you? I've thought about it too, but have heard you have to change or modify some things.

I didnt know you could powdercoat the intakes, I thought they would warp. Looks great

lookin good there !!!
i remember someone saying on the forum that they could powder coat plastic as long as it could get to a certain temp. but i cant remeber how hot they said it needed to get too. but these intakes are designed to handle some heat being on top of the engine. spill the beans allready and say who, where, and how much !!!
