intake help

[1968LS1]

i have been doing a llot of reading on different intakes for a 2001 engine and was wondering what would give me the best results i have heard not read that a aftermarket intake four carb would give me just as much punch as the fuel injected system now i am new to the ls1 block and i have been reading as much as i can so any help is good help

I would go with the Fast 92mm LSX intake and Bigmouth throttle body.

what would i pay for a set up like that and well lets just say i would need the entire set computer and wiring

[1968LS1]

just read in computer help that the best if iam doing any other power changes is to go with a higher model 99 and up

A 92mm LSX intake and throttle body will run you about $1150. I'd have it ported as well.
I don't exactly follow what your asking about the computer though.
You have a 2001 LS1, correct? What all do you have with it? and fuel injection items? If not then that'll up the price about 500 (thats if I were to do it since I would get the LSX fuel rails and a set of big injectors) or so ontop of a wiring harness and computer, if you don't have those.

Im kinda confused by the Original post. If you are looking for a carb set-up edelbrock makes one http://www.edelbrock.com/automotive_..._gap-ls1.shtml

sorry bout not answering back been on vacation now what iam trying to do is figure out which is cheaper to do the intake or the injection no i do not have none of the thottle body nor computer just the engine

carbs have there benefits and drawbacks, but I would think it would be way easier to set up a carb, rather than mess with all the wiring and sensors

I'd personally go EFI, despite the extra trouble...
