    Thumbs up

    I notice the TB habe conducts that take heated water by it.

    Saw it and is kind of easy to take it out.

    Here we have a hot weather 24/7/365 so will that give a good charge of cool air to the manifold? Mo' Power?

    Just consulting?

    That is usually the first performance modification that guys make. They call it a free conversion even though you have to buy a tee or adapter to connect the two hoses together to bypass the throttle body preheat tube. Go for it. I believe step by step instructions on how to do it were post on another website... www.LS1howto.com or something like that.

    Every little bit counts but I have not done this mod because it supposedly only gives a 2-3hp advantage...

    I've heard of cutting back the egr tube on cars but I don't know if it works the same on trucks. It does look like it restricts airflow.
