If you're looking to seriously up your game under the hood, let me tell you about the Texas Speed & Performance LS3 Sheet Metal Intake Manifold. I’ve spent countless hours tinkering with different setups, and this manifold has become a go-to for anyone serious about squeezing out more power from their LS3 engine.
First off, the construction is solid. We’re talking about thick sheet metal for the intake plenum, which means you won’t have to worry about it bending or warping when you crank up the boost. I’ve seen too many guys struggle with flimsy parts that just can’t handle the heat. The CNC billet aluminum runners are a nice touch too—they create a smooth path for airflow, which is crucial for performance. It’s designed for those of us running 400+ CID stroker engines or aggressive heads and cam setups, so you know it’s built for business.
One of the standout features is its compatibility with up to a 102mm throttle body. That’s a big deal if you’re looking to maximize airflow. Plus, it comes with fuel rails and is drilled to accept factory or aftermarket fuel injectors, making installation a breeze. The semi-flat black powder coating not only looks sharp but also adds a layer of durability.
And here’s something I really appreciate: it’s notched at the back of the plenum for clear firewall fitment on C6 Corvettes and Gen 5 Camaros. No one wants to deal with clearance issues when they’re trying to get their ride dialed in.
So, if you’re ready to take your LS3 to the next level, this manifold is a solid choice. It’s built tough, fits right, and performs like a champ. Trust me, you won’t regret making this upgrade.
