intake manifold So, I finish a swap of a 07 escalde 6.2engine in to my 63 cadillac, now, my hood closes just fine, but, the truck intake is just not cutting it for me, I have a ls3 intake out of a 08 corvrette, this is the question, can I still use the same fuel rails, and injectors, do I need new ls3 bolts, gaskets and or o-rings? Thank you all!
You could always sell the LS3 intake and contact this seller and have him make you one.
EDIT:Never mind, I guess I didn't read that you couldn't use a cover.

I checked in to this one, and will not work , hood will not close, basicly, if I want to keep the truck intake, I can't have a cover, or, I can swap it for a ls3 intake, gain some room and get a nice dress up kit, is why I wanted to know if I need to buy the other components, thanks!
As far as I know the only thing that will work from the truck intake to the LS3 intake is the throttle body.
You'll need fuel rails/injectors and I'm pretty sure the injector plugs are different.
You'll also have to modify a few things on the truck accessory drive or the throttle body won't clear them. It's not a simple swap but not hard either.Or switch to the LS3 accessory drive. http://www.ebay.com/itm/LQ-Idler-Pulley-Relocation-Bracket-With-Belt-LS1-intake-Manifold-Swap-/170914739046?pt=Race_Car_Parts&hash=item27cb4ff366&vxp=mtr
