LS1 Intake/Truck Intake
Which one flows better?I have an 04 5.3 truck intake in my 98 s10 right now.Should I keep the truck intake on or put the LS1 intake on?I know they are other intakes that flow better than the ones I have,just curious if its worth swapping?Thanks Mike

Truck intake seems to be the way to go for most of our applications. The LS6 swap used to be semi-popular, but most of the guys who have done it (who have supporting mods that would warrant it...more cubes, big cam, heads, etc), have only reported a tenth or two gain if that. Hardly worth the time and cash IMO. Seems that the biggest gains are found in the aftermarket intakes such as the FAST90...if you have a money tree in your back yard.

Thanks for the replies.Ok so I'll keep the truck intake.I guess I should have mentioned it does have a Comp Cam 222/228 581/588,918 springs,hardened push rods,ls7 lifters,1.7 Harlan Sharp rockers,p&p T.B.4"sewer pipe cai,Dual Magnaflow resonator bullets,99 Camaro exhaust manifolds.I was thinking about the ls6 intake but I guess I'll keep the truck intake.I dont think the fast intakes are worth 1k.IMO.

if you're in to spending some cash on your truck, I'd look in to a set of headers. I know manifolds of now a days are a WHOLE lot better than in the past, but there's still room for improvement.
doesn't sanderson make a set of LS swap headers for the s-trucks?

NE 1 have some dyno results supporting the truck intake theory?
I am at the x roads with the intake swap,[LS1 intake], on my LQ4, and am leaning toward keeping the truck intake. [55 Chevy sedan].
NE input is appreciated.
