	(Finally, a question I can answer!) LS1 sounds right - that's a new
aluminum Chevy V8 used in the Commodore, Camaro, and Corvette.  Anyway, the
air flow meter on many cars can be something of a restriction to incoming
air.  Changing it to a less restrictive type can improve volumetric
efficiency, which is good for more power.  This has become a fairly popular
mod on Chevy engines and some 5.0 Mustangs.
