Default LS1 and LS7

one thing that is getting popular is upgrading an LS1 clutch with the LS7... for those 2002 owners.. you should have gotten an LS6 clutch with the intake from the factory.
now my question is....
has anyone put an LS7 manifold on their LS1/LS6 car? does it fit? will it fit? any changes? gains? ect.. ect...
Thanks

Completely different black and intake setup from what the LS1's use. Throttle by wire just to name one thing.

LS7 heads are completely different. Theoretically you "could" us the intake.. but you'd need the heads too.
