Thanks a ton, I bought a 71 C10 with an LS swap done and the Sniper intake installed. They hid the cable below and it made the throttle cable stiff and touchy, I couldn’t figure out how the bracket mounted till I saw this.
This was a huge help! I've been looking into this and ordered everything because i figured i could make it work but this just reconfirmed what i already thought! really appreciate it!
You don’t need to put a plug on the rail if you take out the -8 with both males you can add a 90degree straight to the rail it’s allows the alternator to put just perfect. Ran into the same problem and wanted to run the return style through the regulator the right way
Kcperformance I’ve seen guys with high dollar and much higher HP builds do it this way. Maybe you have found a fitting that others haven’t but this works just fine as well
i know this comment was from a long time ago- im working on one like this now. Do you still have the truck or any pictures you can send me with this 90 degree you talked about?
What is all the parts you used to do your fuel line i just bought the same intake and I'm putting it on a 2000 chevy short bed single Cab 4x4 I would appreciate it!
Awesome build and video. I have a 2002 5.3 as well. Looking to modify it. Already put headers and cold-air on it. Ordered a camshaft kit from Melling. Came to this video because I was looking at upgrading my intake and TB as well. Question: how did you do the clutch-to-electric fan swap? Where did you source parts? Did you make a video about it? Awesome truck!
Stan, I got an 82 Firebird that I’m putting a 5.3 LS engine in, I have a mechanic doing the work to internals, he has done the cam, springs, internals, what intake and throttle body would you use, it should have around 500 hp or close, paint and body is done, had the car since I was 16 , 50 now, wanted a hot rod to cruise holla at me thks!!
How do u have ur catch can setup? And I was noticing ur clean air outlet on top of throttle body is capped off. And ur catch can is run to ur passenger side valve cover. I know that thier is suppose to be a line run from that capped port on throttle body to the passenger side valve cover. Thanks
Man I was thinking of putting one of those on my 2009 Dodge Challenger 5.7 liter Hemi not for sure how I'm going to make that work though I thought about going with the tall Ram though
YaGoonie ! Never heard of that brand. I would just stick with Summit or Holley. And no you have to buy those items separately. But you can get almost any brand
out of everything i could do with a truck, shortening the cab would not be one.the 90's dualies have a cult following and my extended cab has just barely enough room for a sub/amp as well as the kewl ass mosaic blanket everyone in the continental US has for outdoor.
Malik Cross nope reusing those was one of the easier things of this whole conversion. Holley makes the fuel rails adjustable out of the box, so you already have the right stuff to make it work.
Hey man I’m currently doing this on my truck and I’m trying to figure out what to do with the vapor line that comes out next to the fuel lines? Just cap it?
Tony Escobar I believe my injectors are like 80% duty cycle on this setup. But the truck is pretty much maxed out on this setup, which isn’t much. So I’ll be going with aftermarket injectors soon.
I picked up an unmolested 2000 just like urs, 90k miles. I just installed the corvette servo, looking fur a cam that’s choppy but won’t effect the preforming of the truck... also know of any leather interiors that would bolt right in?
I would recommend A Texas Speed or Brian Tooley truck cam Kit. But you won’t be able to go past a stage 2 with the stock torque converter, that will offer a mild lopey idle, nothing very aggressive. But still two good options.
There is no way I can answer that. It all depends on multiple different things. Just some ideas: try shorter motor mounts to lower the engine or use a low profile intake. People put LS setups in 63’s all day so there is something you probably need to change.
Only code this has caused is the EVAP sensor code, but that’s because I got rid of it. I am also in a emissions county. You can keep the EVAP installed in the back of the intake or delete it in the tune. Mine is deleted, but before I go get the emissions test done I have to go to my tuner and get him to turn the EVAP sensor “on” then quickly go to a close by emissions sight and get it tested. The ECU takes about 20 miles before it notices the sensor is missing. So at the testing sight the code is not active during that time. The choice is yours. The spot where you can put the sensor doesn’t work 100% with the factory sensor, so in my opinion it was easier to remove it rather then rigging something up.
What did you do with all the EVAP stuff like the purge valve and canister? Did you delete it with a tune? I want to put this intake on my Yukon Denali but i still have to do emissions where i live.
Super Stan i forgot to mention I have a 6.2 l92 bolt ones, 224 cam and Holley sniper efi intake. You think stock 30s is good enough? I was thinking ls3 42lbs..
Would you be able to link me to the gm to an fuel fittings. As well as vacuum fitting would greatly appreciate it thanks! Also cant seem to find the throttle cable bracket.
Fuel fitting: amzn.to/35PFv51 Holley Throttle Cable bracket: amzn.to/3LNYyMn The vacuum fittings came with the intake itself so if you do t have them you can probably get some replacements from a local hardware store. They aren’t anything special
I have a 6.2 l92 on my 2011 GMC Sierra. Swapped out the 5.3 for 6.2. Also have sniper intake. Don’t know what to do with the pcv plumbing. Did you use a pcv valve to your catch can?
Nice work, i got a 1999 z28 camaro with the ls1 im putting the same intake but i don’t know where i can conect the vapor canister purge valve that is by the oem fuel rail.....one part conects to the oem intake...and i notice that the sniper intake has 4 slots for vacuum, you think i could use one and conected it there?
Hey man another question for you. So I ordered A alternator relocation bracket. It’ll make room for the fuel rail lines so I shouldn’t have to dead head it. With that being said do I have to use the regulator still or should it be fine?
I basically have the same setup. Just ordering pushrods, then the fuel stuff. Did you have to run the fuel the way you did? Can I use a corvette fuel pressure regulator?
If you are going to run the Holley rails or any similar version you are better off using a aftermarket regulator. They are not expensive and will save you headache. But I have no clue if a Corvette regulator will work, never tried it
@@Stan1le hey thanks for your quick reply! Your definitely one of my favorite channels. That regulator you used, didn’t have any fuel pressure problems. Thanks for your help
@@jkelley8752 thanks for the support! It is always appreciated. With the regulator you simply dial in the pressure you want and leave it alone. I haven’t messed with it since the day it was installed, easy day.
but did it work? did you see hp gains? what supporting mods did you have? anyone can slap a custom intake manifold such as the ones you named, holley hi ram, fast lsxr, ect. but getting them to make hp gains is different.
Albert Treviño before you asked me those questions you could have easily looked at my previous videos and seen the gains. This was done along with ported heads, custom cam, and many other changes. It’s hard to isolate this single mod on its own. Also sometimes people do modifications just for the joy of it, also to change the look. It’s proven that they all make horsepower over the stock intake. This intake will help my build in the future, that’s what my purpose was for this.
So I am assuming you are interested in using this intake for that setup. My MAP sensor is hooked up to the bottom of the intake using a vacuum line. The intake has multiple vacuum ports underneath it for things like that.
I have a 6.0 swapped and looking to put the hi rise ram intake and wanted to know where I can get all the parts that go with the fuel regulator connections?
@@pedroosvt2000 the line is dependent on what size fittings you choose to use. The intake comes with 2 fittings that are basically adapters for AN fittings (that you buy from summit) the other end uses the crossover tube they supply.
have to use a aftermarket fuel regulator. Using the factory lines that come up from the firewall, then using AN adapters to run rubber hose/AN fittings to plumb everything up top.
So I got a question because I just bought a 1972 C10 and it came with a 5.3 Ls installed and it has the same throttle. One of the injectors started leaking fuel ot of it and spilled on the top so I turned it off. Do I have to take the whole fuel rail system off just to get to the injectors since it's set up differently than the OEM engine 🤔
Well even if it were OEM you would have to take the fuel rails off. They are not setup individually. But you just need to unbolt that particular rail to get access to the injector; nothing special. Of anything the OEM is more annoying because all 8 are tired together with hard lines
@@Stan1le One more question brother if I were to look for some one to do the job how much would it cost and would he need to be a professional or a regular mechanic. I also have to fuel pressure regulator that it shows in your video would this person have to tweak with it..??
@@MICLANTECUTLI probably just someone with good experience on the LS platform. The intake and the supporting items aren’t anything unique. But to get it running and set the base fuel pressure LS knowledge will make it easier
@@Stan1le One more question brother I have the throttle body it looks just like the Holly but it doesn't say anything on it. So just wanted to know if you knew a way to identify the throttle so I can get the correct injectors for it. I have a 2004 Tahoe 5.3 engine in my truck
that's a 1to1 regular which means 1 pound of boost equals 1 more pound of fuel. read your instructions. if your not running boost you can cap it off or leave it open it wont do anything either way. but the way you have it there's a 99% chance its changing your fuel pressure while your driven. if you want to check it start it up and unhook it and see if it change. I can almost promise it will.
@@mauricemcilwain4998 lol it makes no difference if he hooks it up or no it dose nothing but make you case fuel pressure when its idling and makes it harder for the tuner to correct. if he unplugged it his car would run better. it doesn't matter what you have it on it works the same. but thank you for responding kinda a little weird but whatever
Yea I would think so. They are all essentially the same. Would just avoid the Amazon version for boosted applications as they tend to use thinner metal
Isaac Sandoval yes they are both connected that way. The map is hooked up but it is deleted out of the tune. With this intake there isn’t a good place for it as you probably noticed. I just ran a short line out from the vaccum block of the intake a hooked it to the sensor.
Shouldn’t be a problem because the cylinder head geometry is the same on all of the 5.3. Can’t really say what the issue is since I’m not looking at it
@@Stan1le I’m runnin rectangular port on my cathedral heads a lot of people runn it like that I’m have issues starting I have spark nd air fuel idk if it interfere I ranned the same 180° on the passenger side idk if it caused my fuel psi to not work
@@ismaelrodriguezjr998 I couldn’t tell you. I’ve never seen the Amazon one in person. They probably look similar but the summit/Holley probably has better fit & finish
I honestly have no clue. This was done along with many more mods so I had no way to do that type of comparison. Only thing I can say is the power is really strong on the top end, and I feel like the intake plays a role in that.
Why not just flip the fuel rails around, connect them at the stock location and out the regulator under the truck? Have a way cleaner look in ur engine bay.
That doesn’t change anything. The fuel rails are identical and can be used on either side so flipping them does not change the orientation of anything. The crossover tube would just be in the front but would not fit because of the truck alternator position. Trust me it’s not a simple solution like you think. It requires a major overhaul of the fuel system to make it work the way I want it. But I will say there are now specialized fittings that could fit behind the alternator but they are very expensive. Since it works I’ll just leave it as is. No need to create new problems
Im having problems with it turning on, i keep getting a map sensor code i have it wired exactly how you have it and thats cause i didnt watch the video untill i built it

@@Stan1le One more question brother I have the throttle body it looks just like the Holly but it doesn't say anything on it. So just wanted to know if you knew a way to identify the throttle so I can get the correct injectors for it. I have a 2004 Tahoe 5.3 engine in my truck
I have a question... why do you have the boost reference hooked up on your regularly but no boost?
billy johnas it’s not for boost. It’s for vacuum coming for the intake
that's a 1to1 regular which means 1 pound of boost equals 1 more pound of fuel. read your instructions. if your not running boost you can cap it off or leave it open it wont do anything either way. but the way you have it there's a 99% chance its changing your fuel pressure while your driven. if you want to check it start it up and unhook it and see if it change. I can almost promise it will.
@@billyjohnas2652 remember....fella said it works for him and his setup
@@mauricemcilwain4998 lol it makes no difference if he hooks it up or no it dose nothing but make you case fuel pressure when its idling and makes it harder for the tuner to correct. if he unplugged it his car would run better. it doesn't matter what you have it on it works the same. but thank you for responding kinda a little weird but whatever
Are the cheaper versions worth getting from Amazon?
Yea I would think so. They are all essentially the same. Would just avoid the Amazon version for boosted applications as they tend to use thinner metal
@@Stan1le thanks
Is the break booster connected to the bottom of the intake?? An what about the map sensor I have the same Intake I need a little advise
Isaac Sandoval yes they are both connected that way. The map is hooked up but it is deleted out of the tune. With this intake there isn’t a good place for it as you probably noticed. I just ran a short line out from the vaccum block of the intake a hooked it to the sensor.
Isaac Sandoval the big bung is for the brake booster
@@Stan1le thanks a lot
how much fuel pressure do you need for it to crank ?
About 30psi I believe
I have just bought the same intake for my 2005 5.3 but it won’t sit flush any suggestions?
Shouldn’t be a problem because the cylinder head geometry is the same on all of the 5.3. Can’t really say what the issue is since I’m not looking at it
Will it fit a 4.8?
Yes it will. It’s the exact same as a 5.3
U have the cathedral intake or rectangular
Cathedral
@@Stan1le I’m runnin rectangular port on my cathedral heads a lot of people runn it like that I’m have issues starting I have spark nd air fuel idk if it interfere I ranned the same 180° on the passenger side idk if it caused my fuel psi to not work
@@GbodySS_LsX hopefully it’s something you can diagnose. Having this intake hasn’t caused any issues like that so I can’t speak on it
Will this fit im gmc sierra 2015 5.3L
I don’t see why not
What’s the cam and exhaust setup?
here you go: th-cam.com/video/VlwKOBVhwf0/w-d-xo.html
Nice job.. Looking for some help on what to buy for an 07 5.3 Avalanche.
Hopefully you got some help by now.
So question is that the intake off Amazon or eBay?
This one is from Summit Racing.
Look just like the Amazon one?
@@ismaelrodriguezjr998 I couldn’t tell you. I’ve never seen the Amazon one in person. They probably look similar but the summit/Holley probably has better fit & finish
Did it need a retune afterwards?
Yes 100%
What’s the mini filter on the top left side called an what’s it for??
Catch can/Crank case breather
Hey how did you do set up your catch can?
it's running off the pcv system using the provisions the holley valve covers have on them
I got 1 question for you stan! 😏
How much hp do you think you gained by using this new intake?
I honestly have no clue. This was done along with many more mods so I had no way to do that type of comparison. Only thing I can say is the power is really strong on the top end, and I feel like the intake plays a role in that.
@@Stan1le thanks for the speedy reply brotha..what state are you in sir?
Why not just flip the fuel rails around, connect them at the stock location and out the regulator under the truck? Have a way cleaner look in ur engine bay.
That doesn’t change anything. The fuel rails are identical and can be used on either side so flipping them does not change the orientation of anything. The crossover tube would just be in the front but would not fit because of the truck alternator position. Trust me it’s not a simple solution like you think. It requires a major overhaul of the fuel system to make it work the way I want it. But I will say there are now specialized fittings that could fit behind the alternator but they are very expensive. Since it works I’ll just leave it as is. No need to create new problems
Ive always wanted to know what wheels you have, im lookin for wheels for my 2000 single cab
27quick Crew just got them off eBay. Look for 20” GMC All Terrain wheel or “snowflakes”
Im having problems with it turning on, i keep getting a map sensor code i have it wired exactly how you have it and thats cause i didnt watch the video untill i built it
I’m pretty sure we turned mine off for tuning. It’s only there for “emissions purposes”
take it to the track & make some runs
its slow, trust me
How so good brother?I bet if change the cam springs and rear end that 5.3 ought to turn up if u haven't already did all that
Or is it just based on the tune??
Everybody knows that them intake manifolds make less power than the truck manifolds
not true at all
Just some ideas
Is that a speedmaster
What are you referring to?
Your Holley
@@foolishgwaez1726 no clue what a speedmaster is. This is basically a Holley high ram “sheet metal” intake.
