everything will bolt up fine. You will have to take a grinder and grind the ridges down on the bottom of the intake. If you don't the intake will hit the steel coolant lines that set below the intake
Or you could get the +01 coolant pipe and plugs for the rear. Here are the install instructions, I used them and everything went fine. http://www.ls1howto.com/index.php?article=5 I'd also pick up a oil pressure sending unit as well. I picked up one when I installed my LS6 intake. I didn't break the stock one, but it's nice to have it as a back up so you are not running to the auto parts store mid-project. I hate that.

It is really easy if you have a die grinder, some of the raspy looking bits and turn the Air Compressor pressure!! It worked for me. Now I just need to put the fuel rail back on and fire this pig up!!
