I ran one on my 408 with LS3 heads for a while. Its pretty low with short runners. I thought it would be ok since I turn it to 7500, but I switched to the taller Holley split intake and picked up quite a bit (couple tenths) in the 1/8. Another slight downside for me is that it takes a paper gasket instead of o-rings like the rest of them.

As for the LSX intake...maybe for high rpm type stuff, will hurt the lower rpms TQ/HP

It is definitely not taller. It looks like the intake I was referring to except for the o-rings, which is a good upgrade, but runners may be on the short side unless you’re spinning it up to 8k rpm.

Here’s the intake I was talking about. Very similar.

yes. I know that intake too. These are two different intakes. The plenum and everything is larger on this intake I’m talking about.
