if i remember correctly holes on the car intakes are smaller then the ones on the truck intake. so you can use the truck injectors if you drill the holes out.
i remember reading something like that a while back but i cant remember which thread.

I recommend a matching rail. Your injectors won't fit the intake. The rail could be used if you wanted to cut it up and splice in hose for the crossover, but otherwise its taller than the truck intake was to begin with.
I suggest finding an LS6 intake. My 5.3 choked out above 5k with the LS1 intake.
