New intake at SEMA: MSD Airforce
Looking at this thing it might have some serious potential if the price isn't astronomical. Seems to be kind of a mix between a Fast design and a cross ram design.

I am in the market for a Fast 92, saving up money now and most likely will be buying come early spring. Hope this is good competition to Fast and competitively priced. The article says it is coming out in January. Two things we need are price and apples to apples tests against Fast.

Thanks for posting that, first I've heard of it. Looks like the perfect solution for those of us with an ls that don't have the older car engine swap room like I have . I'd guess them to not have to cost much more than a fast design.
I'm with everyone else wondering if they'll actually release it & on time ?????? Both the NRE X-ram & the Vararam vrx cross ram intakes have toyed with our patience.
I spoke with a gm engineer on another forum about my cross ram dual plenum project. He says factory intakes are lacking on the bell mouth / air entry space area, so the external of this looks promising as an improvement in that aspect.

nice to see fast wont be the only option on the block anymore. I'm not entirely sure though it will provide any more clearance that a fast. My 102 is shorter than the ls2 rails on it which come pretty close to the cowl.
This actually has indents so the ls2 rails will fit through it, so i still question on if it will be able to clear an fbody

So, who's gonna install a high performance intake manifold like this and retain the stock fuel rails? To accommodate stock rails, they had to create these deep slots in the shell.
1: They look bad-it breaks up the smooth look of the design.
2: Does it affect the performance and airflow in any way?

Here is a good video from SEMA. LS1 retail is $949 so that answers one question. For LS1 they mentioned you have to use an LS2 rail or their system.
Two remaining questions for me. Will it fit in a stock 4th gen f body. I have to assume it will at this point. And how good is it?

Can't wait to see some results. I was thinking about jumping to a LSXRT since I have room, would be cool if this was comparable because it's much less ugly.
If that's true about it being that much taller than the Fast 102 then I could definitely see potential for it to outperform it.
