My first question is. What all do I need for put a ls2/ls6 intake on the 6L. I know the accessory drive need to be changed, or altered, but what else do I need?

Thanks for any input

I put a LS 6 intake on my 5.3L. I used a water pump from a 2000-02 camaro. I had to space out the water pump so the water pump pulley would match up with the crank pulley. I also had to relocate the idler pulley. I got both of these parts from Dirty Dingo motorsports. The Throttle body is a DBW that was ported out. The injectors are also from a LS 6 engine. The water pump spacer has a 1/8 pipe tap hole to run the steam line into if you have to. I also used after market fuels I got from Speed Tech.

Here are a few pics:





Good luck with your conversion.
