There was a discussion regarding this a few years ago.
Concensus was that the stock filter area was more than sufficient to provide air volume needed for our LT5.
Also, although not a major concern for our LT5 since our LT5 does not use MAF (mass air flow sensor?) to measure incoming air, those that has MAF can be thrown off due to oil build up on MAF sensor - migration from air filter oil to wire in the MAF.
If I were to spend money, my preference would be to get the stainless steel air box from George.
20 hp gain with this air filter, I believe, is too optimistic.
