LS6 Manifold Install
I just put an LS6 intake on my car. I wasn't expecting too much from it becuase of what I read. Around +7 to 10hp and tq. First thing I noticed is at idle and granny driving the car is actually quieter and smoother. Not as much burbling from the exhaust. But then when I go WOT, :eek: I think it likes the vararam and TB porting I did, and the headers, etc. because it sure feels like more than 10hp. Dynoing on Monday so we'll know for sure. Baseline with the Daytona's, xpipe, and vararam was 318rwhp, 326rwtq. This was a cheap and easy mod. I put it in in about 3hrs. And mostly because I never did this before and I took a good 45 minutes cleaning off the heads and cleaning up the new manifold. Or maybe it is my motorized antennae. :thumbs:

Re: LS6 Manifold Install (jmX)
Thanks jmx. I forgot to add that I got the info on how to do it from your website. LS1 to LS6 manifold swap. It's in my favorites folder. Awesome site. :thumbs:
