Alright I had somebody tell me a while back you could mount an LS1 intake on an LT1, i somewhat tried but saw it wasnt happening without some significant mods so i gave up. Can this be done? If so would anybody mind giving me some pointers, Im ready to sell this intake but if theres a way to get it on my car id be happier doing the work. Im looking to put an Ultra Z hood on so that should give me the room I need but as far as sensors and things like that will it all work out, or am i wasting my time and just going to screw something up... APPRECIATE IT!!!

Unless someone has a better answer, I didnt really see a point to do it otherwise with the exception of less heat soak. I would surmise it would require a sheet metal template then mount it...

I would just sell it. imo.

 

it should just bolt on

 

It won't fit. Sell it.

 

THere a a bunch of people that have done it.........whether or not it has made a difference or whether or not it was better than our set-up i dont know, but it can be done......

As long has you have the hood clearance

 

i just picked up a used one. as long as i get it to fit under my harwood hood i'll do some dyno runs with it and with my slp.

 

What?? Does anyone have pics of it?

 

For clarification can someone tell me if you guys are refering to the air intake, or the intake manifold. I know the LS1 intake manifold will not fit our cars, and I know that the LS1 air intake will fit with some modifications. But by the look of some of the responses given here, I am not sure any of us really know which we are talking about...because both have been discussed b4.

 

I would have to agree with you 89. If it's an intake manifold, It will not fit, PERIOD. If it's an air intake, like say a K&N or even a stocker, it can be made to fit but you do have to run a different hood. Stock hoods will not fit.

 

scott and i are talking about the air lid. not the manfold.

 

I knew thats what you and he were talking about, and thought thats what the thread starter meant...but can't be sure. Also post 2-4 didn't seem to sure either.

 

Well the bolts do line up, but my main question is what about whatever sensor is about 3/4 of an inch round and is located on/in the Elbow on our Lt1 but on the LS1 intake there is a hole drilled in the plastic for it. Is this sensor Not important..... thats my main concern is dealing with those. And to answer the question of WHY BOTHER.... I had heard that "Ram Air" setup would be better than the stock one which takes the cool air for a ride through the engine bay before entering the intake manifold itself.

 

heres a link http://web.camaross.com/forums/showt...=390852&page=3 and the sensor you're talking about is the IAT intake air temp sensor

 

Thanks alot
