I dont know that on a forced induction application, it will make as much of a difference in terms of power. It's my understanding that the boosted cars dont have the intake stalling out limitations that us NA and nitrous guys have.

Are you looking to use the current short runner intake or wait for the long runners for this motor?

My power starts dropping off after 5k rpm. Doc Phil did testing on the L92/L76 and found out the combination makes no power above 6K. The write up is on the corvette forum.

Guys when I get back from PRI I will put together the group purchase for the LS7 style.

For the guys needing the longer runners. They will be available real soon.

After some research, I will need the ones with the longer runners. My application requires the low-end torque. I'm hoping the longer runner version does not raise the plentum too much as I have aluminum over part of the engine and I do not want to redo that.

Do you know the runner length they are going to make for the longer ones?

Here are some pics of what I must work around.

Ideas...

I haven't seen this intake in person, but right of the bat I can tell you that you probably will have to cut a little bit of that red aluminum piece so you can fit this intake. It looks prety tight.

Here is a good question. Are the current runners, the length they are because that is as long as you could make them to still clear factory hoods? Or do you believe a longer set of runners will still clear factory hoods.

I may be wrong but I am thinking that the longer runner will be longer inside the intake not outside.

That is what I was hoping/thinking. But I was thinking it may possibly have to be on the outside aswell.

Yes, I can handle a little bit of trimming but not much.

I hope it will go inside too. Maybe a slight bend on the inside and 2 inches longer.

The longer runners do go inside, so the overall plenum dimensions will always be the same, which is only 1/2" higher than a stock manifold.
