Would you agree with me though on a 6-speed?
I guess some of the comparisons I may have seen could've had different stock heads and cam. So perhaps the newer design was compensating a bit for the loss of torque from the intake.
I really don't know with a 6 speed, I would just be guessing, I've never done any testing. I am sure somebody else has at one time or another.
But, I will say, the trend with gearing an LT-1 6 speed seems to be more along the lines of 3.73-4.11, and the SR or TPI's, 3.07-3.54..... and thats going to help the LT-1.
But, I don't know, I am sure there are some with some experiences that could chime in. At the end of the day, as I had said in another thread, regardless of if its a SR, MR or LT-1 intake, they're all good and a big step over a TPI intake. Pick your poison and go have fun :thumbright:
