Any cathedral port manifold will work BUT truck manifolds have a taller inlet to clear the mechanical fan trucks use. Are you retaining and using the truck accessory drive stuff or changing to car stuff?

Tell us more about what you're doing and the vehicle.

An LS1 intake will fit. You can mod the truck accessories. Lots of threads here and conversions page.
Here's one of mine with pics.
