there ya go. as long as someone test it. i really don't think a gain is to be had. check the numbers and you will see, that meter number is the same as our stock truck

btw, lance i am not flaming you. just trying to save some guy some money.

Your stock mass air sensor is exactly the same size as the ZO6,if you do anything just descreen the stock one.The BBK throttlebody might actually help if the opening on the intake manifold was big enough to accomodate the 80mm throttlebody and if your engine actually needed more flow than the stock one can provide.neither one these situations is the case don't waste the money.

I turned that crap off on my truck too. Dunno if the lack of EGR will help or not but hey, screw that emissions stuff.

But I second porting the stock TB. I think v8 on here gained a few MPH from his 80mm BBK

Hey guys thanks for the overwhelming inofrmation....looks like the majority says F-it!!!! So i'm all for saving that bread and putting it towards some ASms and an exhaust..then e-fans..then LS6 intake...then... AAAHHGGG!!!!! LMAo I'll just do a search on the best way and correct way to port and polish my throttle body and stick to that as I've already descreened my MAF. I know somebody on here is a TB P&P nut...anybody know who that is..I might get with him on a "trade" if he has a drive by wire one! THANKS AGAIN GUYS!!!!

Yeah, that seems to be the general concensus on them! Thanks for the info though!
