5.3 to 6.2 intake swap

[Knotsure]

I don't know why I thought the lt1 was an old motor. I guess the lt1 is in the base corvettes still. Thanks for the clarification. I can't wait for this mod on my truck. I know it won't be a hot rod world beater but this is a cool one.

My new 6.2 intake is on it's way. What are good throttle body's to look at that would work with it?

Nick Williams isn't making them yet,

Katech ported

Tony Mamo ported

WeaponX ported

Katech 103MM, but way too much for a stock motor

 

Any of these places are porting the stock TB to have them flow better, some report a few HP gained, wouldn't buy it for that, not sure I really believe it, does improve the throttle response a great deal.

http://store.katechengines.com/mobile/lt1lt4-cnc-ported-throttle-body-p487.aspx is this the right one? All the reviews are people putting them on their corvettes.

This showing any real returns?

I talked to Tony Mamo and there is some small gains but the Throttle response is greatly improved.

Are the genV 5.3 heads square port on the intake now? If so, I think that is pretty cool!

Man, probably the last thing I need but very tempting. About my only complaint on these motors is the throttle lag.

So will the LT1 manifold swap in or only the L86?

Yes the Vette and Camaro manifolds will fit all GEN V V8's

How did you tie your intake in? Just get a new one?
