LSA Build - ZL1 Lid Questions
Hello, I'm starting the process of an LSA build on my SS. I see there are several options for the lid and I'd like to get an idea of the advantages. I don't race my car and am just looking for more HP (150+ to the wheels) so that's a consideration. Here are the options I have questions about:
-Milling -Reinforced Brick -Billet Manifold with AN fittings I appreciate the help!

Reinforce the brick to support the extra boost it will see. No need to mill the lid. As for as the billet manifold waste of money unless your going for that look. Get a lid spacer for extra volume under the lid.

The Cadillac Lid has a larger intercooler brick so I would start there.
But the internet says the ZL-1 lid is better LOL I tested them back to back the Cadillac Lid is better.
