Like some others have said, I went with the lokar setup. I think they offered it with mounting hardware as well and in different legnths. I don't remember what legnth I went with but it works great. Heres a pic, not very good but you get the idea.

it can, but the hole in the firewall would have to be enlarged slightly.
the thirdgen firewall clip retention looks identical, but its larger.

I'm running the GMPP LS7 manifold, Wilson TB and a Lokar Universal Carb style cable. You can call them and they will give you the part number.

If you look at the bolt pattern on the actual intake you can clearly see its not a sb2 or 2.2 intake.
