Default Intake options for DBW TB

Ok - I did use the search button. Are the LS2 TBSS and SSR intakes with the 90mm dbw the only direct replacement intake manifolds (other than vic jr) without running into interference with the water pump neck? I am trying to decide on future power adders.

Debating between

Radix

ATI Procharger/Vic Jr/Wilson Elbow/DBW 90mm from SSR-TBSS

SSR-TBSS intake/DBW 90mm/Nitrous

or just add nitrous.

While they require no waterpump or belt routing mods, they still aren't a direct replacement. You still need to do a little fabrication for your return style fuel system.

Thunder550 covered it pretty well in his thread.

2005 lq9 from Escalade. I could be mistaken.

The returnless style didn't start until 2004, so your truck orginally came with a return style.

I'm assuming that you didn't install your LQ9 yet, or else you would have had to either swap over your old return style rail or swap in the entire fuel system from a returnless style truck for it to work.

Yea, then you'll have a little modification to your rails to do. Like I said, Thunder550 covered it very well.
