intake/tb gains?
 
ok i have my heads/cam/intake and tb sitting around im going to wait till winter when ill have plenty of time to take my time with it to install, but i was wondering what kind of gains i should see if i swap my ls1 intake and stock tb out for my ls2 and 92mm tb.

On an otherwise stock or near-stock motor, you most likely won't see much, and it'll all be at the top of the powerband.

Gains will be slim to none. if you go with a fast 92 intake manifold then you'll pick up some power. You are better off with an LS6 manifold over an ls2.

ok thats what i figured. i just want to get a little more power out of the z until i get around to doing the head/cam swap.

You'll feel the throttle body but the LS2 has pretty much been proven to add next to nothing except a few hp in the upper rpms.
