I'd like to get one of these intakes sometime in January, but need to know that I'm not going to run into fitment issues, and that my Accel 44lb/hr injectors are going to fit.
I'm also curious if any of the vendors will sell a complete kit, which includes the intake and the necessary fuel rails.

Trust me, I'm eager to get my hands on one and show you guys how it fits in an f-body, as well as injector fitment etc. I'm just waiting for one.

I still cringe thinking of the Holley intake of yesteryear that was suppose to be the next best thing since sliced bread and never made it to market.
I have two large looming questions assuming it does make it to market......will it fit the 90% crowd.....IE all the F-Body and C5/C6 Corvettes......and is a mass produced production piece really better than the FAST or at the very least does it have the potential to be better in ported trim versus a FAST in ported trim?
I'm not holding my breath as I see alot of companies (my former employer included) release information on a new product at a show too early (excited to start promoting it) and while everyone's best intentions might have been there, stuff comes up that's unexpected in the ninth hour causing delays and/or potential issues with the fitment or performance of the product.
I will certainly have a look at one at the PRI show.....a very close look....and will report anything I hear or see of significance shortly after but I would suggest you guys hope for the best and just take a wait and see approach.
On a positive note, if it really is as good as some of the hype.....that would be just plain awesome for the LS platform in general and I'm sure with further tweaking the intake could be made to flow and perform even better.
Im excited about it but sitting on the sidelines till more of my major concerns are answered (really answered with zero speculation involved).
I suspect I will have one on the dyno shortly after they are made available....that goes without saying as well.
Cheers,
Tony

Also, I noticed they displayed that manifold with high mounted MSD coils (that sit higher than the manifold). If we have a member on this board with that coil setup, and it fits under the cowl of an Fbody, then we should have our answer as to whether or not this manifold will fit. No?
They also state there are three MAP sensor locations and has a provision for running a cable TB, good news for swaps (LT1->LS, LS1->LS3, etc.).

I understand that, but if the valves are switched, so are the ports, and if the ports are switched, so are the runners. Thus the detents or contours in the LT1 upper lid wont line up with the runners in the LS lower. However, the contours in the upper may have enough space to clear the mismatch.

Also, upon further inspection of the pictures of the LT and LS versions side-by-side, the tops look to be nothing alike (in terms of perimeter shape, runner locations, lack of injector bungs in the LT, etc.).
