how to give your LT1 car more performance FOR FREE (95-97)(94-96 B-Body)
If you have an LT1 this is a mod that can help cool your intake air ESPECIALLY if you have a cold air intake. Before I did the mod my cold air intake and throttle would get very warm but now it stays cool even after hours of driving. You will feel a slight improvement in throttle response but don't think you will have a 10 second car off the rip with this mod alone lol.
Thanks for watching!

For all the people who are still asking or commenting on the silly intake. For 1 I don't have this intake anymore. Engine is currently on its way out LS swapping. This is essentially the same exact intake as the expensive raved about RAISS and SSRI intakes that most serious LT B-Body guys run. Only thing missing is that plastic shroud which I've waited months to hear back from Clear Image Automotive about and still haven't. Just take a look through a photo album of any major event focused on these cars. Nothing special. Neither are those $400+ intakes when you look at actual real life data with these cars. Putting too much stock in intakes (and exhaust) is probably why so many folks have slow LTs. Mine was a high miles freak of nature. I never over spent on mods with that engine. I put lipstick on an overworked pig and she still liked it just check my 0-60. Was spinning like hell on street tires and still booked it faster than many much more expensive newer "more powerful" cars. Can't believe the hype 👎🏿🤣🤣. I'm sure I've actually already touched on this before so check out my other videos 😉 I've always recommended the stock intake with swiss cheese mod, home plate delete, and first plate delete. Best intake that works in *real* life for a whopping $0.00
Man I love that Impala. Thats a really slick ride bro, glad I found this vid! I'm gonna do this to my 95 Camaro Z28 this weekend, I'm in NC so I don't need hot water in my throttle body.
i did that on my 1992 e36 bmw. Same setup your talking about and yes you have the correct idea of how it works too. good work. It def helps and you can feel it in the cold weather for sure.

b body LT1 cars are the most slept on underrated cars! I 4:10 locker swapped my LT1 94 buick roadmaster last week and swapped a 94 Impala SS ECU in and this car lives for burnouts now

That's the first thing I did when I got my 96 Buick Roadmaster sedan. It was 1° last week and I didn't have any problems getting it started or running. I'm all about free mods. Cheap mods are good too. I made a homemade cold air intake out of sewer pipe and flex pipe mounted my cone filter behind the front bumper. Also have dual 2 1/2" Flowmaster 40 series and an x-pipe that I made myself with scrap pipe and a flux core welder. PCMforLESS tuned PCM to delete the emissions and VATS and a few other things. I haven't had the time or money to do everything I want. But I do what I can with what I got.

Hey bro, great video.. got an unrelated question for you. I gotta Roadmaster that's pretty much the same set up. What's your highway speed RPM with thos 3.73s on that thing? I know you 0-60 looks good. I got a 2.90 something in the rear of the Buick I think and I'm about to switch gears. Just looking for some advice on what to throw in it.

I'm usually at around 2000-2400 most the time when I'm on the interstate. Not too mad the 3.73s is makes for a good balance between performance and streetability. A good tune really helps too. Only issues I'd say I had with the change is traction issues but I'm to blame for that. Takes some getting use to 🤣

It was upgraded with 3.73s years ago. The only thing that wasn't modded in this video was the engine internals pretty much. IMO the gearing saves this heavy car dramatically lol.
