on LS1, id use a 4.0" air intake. the MAF should dictate the sizing
in and out.
im having to use a 4.0" on my SSR 5.3L

you're still running the tbi motor in your truck, right? if so, then the 3.5" will work fine - Ive built a ton of custom CAI's using 3.5" with excellent results. also pm me, I have a few things to talk about...:D

i have the same motor as you, if on a ls1 a 4.90 is good i figure on my motor a 3.5 should be good

efi now, edelsuck kit like kelly, i sent you a pm :D

so 3.5 it is..:D

my other thing is, the intakes on ebay, i really just need the adapter that sits ontop of the TB, but does anybody know what size piping it is that comes off of there? or does anybody have one or one from say the airraid kit, i am going to try and make one, but i figure thats going to be the hardest part
