I have a possibility to buy a fully "l98 converted" lt1 intake off a '96 c4 corvette. Is it worth it to slap it to a stock l98?

! also if someone has done it or something close to (miniram etc on stock l98) experiences and dyno sheets are appreciated !

Without supporting mods and a tune to truly take advantage of a LT1/Miniram style intake, it would likely not be worth the work.

There is a guy on the Corvette Forums that will do the conversion for you for $300, last I knew. I'm sure you could go on there, do a search and find the guy....can't remember his name ATM. Sorry.

WRT to "worth it"? You can decide that. I've heared/read many-a-time that "an L98 with an LT1 or Miniram intake is an LT1". No, it's not. I'm in the midst of doing a re-make of the Ten Times the Tork test that was done decades ago, and I have already run a MiniRam on a pretty stock L98...and the result was a big loss in tq w/only a marginal (17hp) gain in power. You can see the details of that, RIGHT HERE

So, it's a personal choice as to if it's worth that trade off to you or not, but there are the raw numbers for you to think about.

After having tuned on my Miniram for years, I often wonder what TPIS does for its chips. With the factory TPI AE settings it hesitates and stumbles like crazy. Are they really doing anything with the AE?
