Default Modified LS7 intake on L92

I remember reading not too long ago, someone was modifying an LS7 intake to fit the L92 heads. Can't remember who it was now, maybe Richard at WCCH? Any details, updates? How about an update on F.A.S.T making an intake for the L92, heard it was in the works, just a matter of time.

I've considered doing exactly this, but I just haven't had the time to machine a pair of heads up. In mockup, the floor of the LS7 intake sits approx .150"-.200" higher than the floor of the L92 ports. You'll need to run a LS7 intake gasket to make this work. Also, the roof will have at least a .125" step at the port flange. The LS7 again sits higher. Still, I think it has the possibility of working better than the L76 manifold.......
