It's the exact same as an LS6 intake. Instead of cutting the pipes, just get the front crossover pipe and the rear plugs.

x2^ its just cutting each individual block in the back and then making one tube-crossover in the front. just go get the ls6 tubes they cost about 45-50 dollars, and pretty easy to find. I think slp has them and I bet lm performance has them.

I got mine from GM dealer, then ordered the block offs for the rear. All you have to do is get one off of a 01 or newer.
