I been wonder if its worth to swap with Edelbrock LS-XT on 5.3 silverado? Let me know. If yes then- what kind injectors #60 able plug to fit? I heard some kind of injectors have hard time to fit it on those intake.

I have never owned one but i do have a friend who has one and said his fit ok but the Intake was Really Geared for Top End Performance and wasn't so fun as a DD intake fwiw, IMHO that intake needs a bigger cid motor and all the goodies to get the most out of it, GM spent Millions designing an intake that had good throttle response,ballance,fuel economy,and it is a good intake, If i were you and wanted the best gain for the $ either get a LS6 intake or go with a Used FAST 90-92mm intake and a bigger TB, JMO, Goodluck!

i have one on my 5.3, but i have a 232 236 601 lift cam and so it does lack a little low end but i didnt think i really lost much low end couse of the intake, with your cam, 4.10 or 4.56 gears and a 3600 or higher stall it would work vary good. it shur does pull harder up top, i take mine to 7k and it pulls hardest at 7k! lol. and any ls1 injectors will work. u just have to get the adepters.

Same thing I already spoke to WCC richard who seller those intakes. He suggest not to do it. Not worth. Unless if I go bigger motor like 408 it would be perfect. I just forget it. Im going stay stock intake. Many thanks for yall info. Appericated for that.

Well I have a 01 5.c and I have thought about gettin a tbss intake or a nnbs intake with the 90mm throttle body I have heard they help alot but you got to get a fuel rail from something else

i have a tbss intake on my cammed 4.8l. does help a lot. breathes better than the small bore intake. only need the fuel rail that comes with the intake. also tbss has ls2 injectors
