LS2 or LS6 Intake Manifold???
LS2 or LS6 Intake Manifold???
You have a deal on both.. which one do you get for an upgrade for your stock LS1... planning on porting which ever I get?
Thanks for the reply... anyone have experiences on theses with Dynos? In the FAR future planning on supercharging, getting the ducks in a row until then piece by piece.

LS2 is a downgrade in manifold, but you will have to use the bigger throttle body
I was faced with this same question, LS6 is the winner

I had heard that the LS2 was a better choice if you plan to do heads and cam etc. For a fairly stock LS1, the LS6 is a better choice, but once you start running more HP, the LS2 is the choice. Was I mis-informed? Is there any counterpoint to this? I plan to do ported 243 heads and a fairly aggressive MTI cam, and have been questioning what intake to run.

Do the Z06 pcv valve conversion too while you're at it.
