Default Sheet metal intake questions

I'm thinking about doing a sheet metal intake on my 402. I've got some FMS stage 3 ls6 heads and a solid roller.... so its not like it will be over intaked.

But I was wondering how the fitment issues were, how are they for street driving, and who makes them and could possibly have one in stock?

I'm not just dead set on doing this yet but its an idea....... besides I just get a pretty good paying job and need something to spend the money on! LOL

I might have a ls2 intake, rails, and o-rings for sale if I do go this route.... which will be posted in the f/s section.

TTT... i looked at that one and liked what i saw but I think there could be better prices...... i've seen sheet metal intakes for sale used for like 800 bucks......... so I know they don't loose 2 grand right off the top.

I want more than what just a fast can offer. I know I probably won't make enough power to run 9's N/A(with a race weight about 3600-3700)lbs but I'de like to get as close to it as possible and then through a big ole dose of nitrous on top.

I wouldn't mind paying 1500 or 1800 but DAYUM 2800 bucks is kinda high when I have seen them for less new before
