Not sure if you all know this, but I'll gladly pass it along [Big Grin]


Made from space-age polymer plastic, the new FAST™ LSX multi-piece component intake manifold shows a 20 horsepower increase on the General Motors LS1 engine and 15 horsepower on the Corvette LS6 engine, with no loss of drivability or low rpm torque. Best of all, the FAST™ space-age plastic polymer intake is 30 percent stronger than the stock polymer unit. Unlike aftermarket aluminum intakes, the FAST™ polymer intake avoids becoming a power robbing heat sink.

The LSX comes with integrated nitrous oxide injector ports and the ability to accept a larger than the stock (75mm) throttle body for increased fuel flow. In addition, the LSX manifold has the capability to be ported and is easily accessible as a result of the multi-piece design. Optional nitrous burst panels may be added for an additional charge (pricing will be available soon.) 78mm and 90mm Throttle Bodies will be available soon from FAST.

[Cool] Hopefully that means there will be a lot of cheap LS6 intakes available on the used market [Big Grin]

That manifold was featured in a recent Super Chevy or Chevy Performance, or some mag somewhere, forget which one. From the article's graphs and figures, it is superior to stock or aluminum designs according to what I read. It appears they did their homework in durability, multi-compatability and the ability to be ported.
