Default Ultimate LS7 intake
Wilson has a new billet intake for the LS7. thought you guys might like to see it. They have had one for the LS1 style heads but this just finished. Let me know if you would like info on one. Pricing starts at $3000

Wow, it has 'long' runners. I thought the whole point of the sheet metal intakes was short runners to increase air flow at high RPMs?

Yes but there is a point it is too short. That is the big problem with some Sheetmetal intakes they only work with forced induction because you can not get enough runner length.

Any idea whether this will clear the cowl on an F-body?

Thank you, I have been waiting for someone to do this for about 6 months now. Ever since they came out with the LS1 version.

Do not need boost to use an intake like this it will work on an all out large qube motor. This intake is going on a ERL block 443" engine with ET performance LS7 heads Built by F-R-E, shooting for 700 HP on pump gas... Dyno graph will follow. We carry alot of his billet parts. Like LS2 valley covers valve covers and manual tensioner pulleys.
