well i am going to be getting rid of the truck intake off the lq9 i ordered.

i know it comes stock with a 78mm like the ls1/6. should i get an ls6 intake and ported tb or go with something bigger like a fast 90?

in all honesty I would ask this question on Ls1tech. I don't know of many/or any1 on this site that is running a 6.0 block in their cars.(I take that back, there's like 2 or 3)

i would be more worried about changing the trucks moving parts than the intake...

I would go with L92 heads (flows excellent as casted), Get the l76 intake, and get EDC to custom grind a cam for you. You'll be looking at 450-500 wheel hp

not really looking to have alot of power lol. (yes you read correctly) just going to be putting the stock lq9 in the car along with my just purchased fast 90 manifold. long tube headers. and a couple other little mods. just basically a nice little street car. (no drag racing for me)

When you gain 5 HP from an LS6 to a ported fast, then yes...
