Maximise Your LS3 Power with the GM LS Rectangle Port Carburettor Single Plane Intake Manifold
If you’re running a GM LS3 Rectangle Port engine and want to step away from EFI for a traditional carburettor setup, the Aeroflow AF6040-6000 Single Plane Intake Manifold is your perfect street-performance upgrade. Designed specifically for non-EFI applications, this manifold is engineered to deliver strong, responsive power in the 2500 to 7000 RPM range, making it ideal for street rods, muscle cars, and resto-mod builds right here in New Zealand.
Featuring a 4-barrel 4150 square bore carburettor pad, this intake manifold easily fits most popular carburettors, delivering consistent airflow to your LS3 engine. The natural cast finish offers a classic look while ensuring durability and performance.
Built for Performance and Practicality
The manifold’s single plane configuration promotes excellent top-end power and throttle response, perfectly suited for high-revving street builds. With a port size of 1.15" x 2.50", it matches the LS3’s rectangle port heads, ensuring smooth airflow and efficient combustion.
Measuring 122mm from carb pad to manifold base, it’s compact enough for many engine bays, but we recommend checking bonnet clearance to avoid any surprises during installation.
