    Welcome--sounds like you are having fun with the knock sensors! Eh, they are not that bad. Pretty easy to swap out--it lets you get a little more familiar with your motor! As for the TB bypass--you can do it if you want, but there really isn't a difference. Just use the hose that goes from the radiator to the pass side of the TB and route it to the top of the motor on driver's side. Pretty easy. There are quite a few LS1truck guys down there in the Austin area...ya'll should do a GTG...

    Thanks for the greetings and invites.

    I was planning on going to SAR for Midnight Madness the 19th, but looks like the new GM intake gasket has a long lead time. I already bought a brand new set from Felpro, but I saw some TSBs about leaky intake manifolds and heard the new and improved GM gasket (part#89060413) is the way to go.

    Any thoughts?

    Thx!

    Go witht the GM gasket. And only go with GM parts when it comes to anything on the motor!
    I have not heard anything about our GenIII motors having a leaky intake manifold. Starting in 1997 and continuing into a bit in 1998, the 5.7L Vortec 350 motor had very bad intake leak problems. The leaky intake was fixed when the Gen III motors came out.
