Default LS7 Intake and Boost

How much boost can a stock (ported) LS7 Intake take? 12psi?

That's what I'm running on my new setup. I'll be running 18-20psi and would imagine it would be fine to 24+.

Enough boost to make more power than almost anyone on here would ever need.

Is that intake any better than an LS6 or LS2? Can you use that intake with standard heads or do you need to run the LS7 heads? I need to get an intake for my turbo 408 and I am not sure what I want to go with. I will be shifting at 6200ish.

The LS1/2/6 have Cathedral Head ports and the LS3/7 have rectagular, so no, it would not work on your setup (LS2 I'm assuming), the FAST 92 would be perfect for you though
