The problem that some owners have had were the stock valves breaking during high RPM usage. The hallow valve would break where the head meets the stem.

If you're tyring to make sure it's an LS7, the LS7 intake is very easy to identify. It only fits LS7 heads which require a 4.125 bore. If you know what it looks like, you can identify it from 20 ft away.
