Default Tell me a little about this intake

I was thinking about the LS6 intake but I got offered this intake for $150. Is this a better intake then the LS6 or about the same ? What would you guys do, get this one or the LS6 ? I know nothing about this intake and want to make sure it's a good one before I buy it.

It is literaly an aluminum copy of an LS6 intake. The only advantage is it can be ported a bit. $150 is a great price if you are coming from an LS1 intake. IF you already have an LS6 I would just keep it.

Yea I just have the LS1 intake still on, and that's what I'm thinking about this intake. I need to make sure it's alright before I get it. Never have heard to much about it but it appears to be ok.

its a very good intake, and a good deal for 150$
if u alredy own a ls6, it will perform about the same, but can be ported and machined for direct port if need
