  • Found whisper lid

    Hey guys, I'm new to this site, but ive been a member of firebirdnation.com for 4 years, so I'm not new to firebirds. Now think I found a place that is making the whipser lid. Now it says it's for the ls1, but the opening going to the throttle body is offset to the right like the v6, not in the center like the ls1. What do you guys think? O and sorry for yet another thread on whipser lids.

    looks like they used a generic pic for their site and the pic is of the offset v6 version. The ls1 lids will all be in the middle and not offset.

      So I might as well go ahead and get the higher quality slp lid for the ls1 and get myself some flexible tubing rather then chancing it with this lid?

        higher quality? They are all made of the same plastic pretty much. As for gains between them they all are really close. You would be fine with either, just not ideal with flex tubing and curve air path like a v6 one would be.

        If you are set on a ls1 lid, just surf ls1tech for a lid. They are way cheaper there and if you don't like it you are not out as much $$$, just sell it for what you bought it for.

                on the radiator shroud yes, just don't line up with the throttlebody so you need flex hose to make the bends.

                      ZZP or Intense racing has great tubing, I've had 3", 3.5" and 4" tubing and its great stuff and pretty flexable. Might look on ebay also to see what they got might save some coin per ft.
