Default LS1 Build...

Did anyone catch the LS1 Build on Two Guys Garage this weekend. I missed it, but heard about it from my coworker.

I see they bolted on the the LSX Manifold. My question here is how would this work for our trucks? I'd like to find an intake with a 80mm plenum for the BBK. It looks like the FAST Intake is offered for 78mm and 90mm and include their TB's. Unfortunately, the TB's appear to differ with the TPS and AIC(?) Sensors.

I see they also improved upon the runners. Will this have any effect on MAF calibration due to the increase air volume and velocity?

I tried to tape it, but something screwed up. I saw the first few minutes of it.... wonder if it will come on again...?

Yea .. they were doing a 'textbook' type assembly. Showed them drop a head on, commercial, then they were headed to the dyno, then another commercial. Not very informative. On the Dyno software they were using, they used the bore and stroke of a sbc, not the LS1 and we all know they are not the same.
