lt1intake.com

Did all the tech info that was on lt1intake.com get archived or moved somewhere? Does someone have their own backup that they're willing to share?

Not sure if this belongs here or in the alternative intake section, but I'm putting it here because I'm looking for general info about LT1 parts swaps... Feel free to move it if you feel it belongs somewhere else...

Re: lt1intake.com

I'm considering running some LT1 heads on a 305, and almost every search I do here or on the 'net in general links to one or more pages on that site, from running LT1 heads on a sbc, using a gen1 intake on an LT1 or with LT1 heads...

Like I said, I'm really hoping that someone archived all the different informational pages on that site before it disappeared. For that matter I think I did but I can't seem to find it and I'm sure it was early on, before there was that much info there.

Re: lt1intake.com

Does anyone even know when the site was last updated or taken down?

Re: lt1intake.com

Only two threads I remember seeing about a LT1 head conversion are these which you posted in

https://www.thirdgen.org/forums/fabr...n-project.html
https://www.thirdgen.org/forums/tpi/...eads-gen1.html

lt1instakeswap.com focused on just swapping the intake over and the simple job of modifying for the dist/coolant lines. I dont recall it ever having cyl head info

Re: lt1intake.com

Yea, it's funny, I messed with an LT1 intake on a SBC literally _years_ ago (maybe late 90's), and I've owned an LT1 and messed with that since 97 (I bought a '97 WS6 new back then), but I haven't messed with the heads on an SBC and now ran across a spare set of them and trying to dig up all the old info (don't feel like reinventing the wheel if I don't have to)... I wish I could find some of the parts that I know I have sitting around somewhere, I could probably come up with most of what I am looking for.

Actually, one of the links that I keep seeing everywhere that I'd love to see is the one in post 47 and 48 in your second link (where they specifically talk about "not loosing that information")
