Will this fit under the hood of a commodore? I assume it would, but it looks fairly high.
Thanks for the pics Forerestd.
Just found it on the Aussie site.

Hi Guys
the next step for this intake is to get it bolted onto the car and run some numbers. See how the dyno tune, steet manners and strip results go. I have run an 11.0@125mph with my 3700lb 2004 Holden Monaro (LS7 block/L92 heads) with a stocker L76 intake, which we believe is "choking" the motor. So we'lllet you know how it goes. I think it will take 1 or 2 weeks though, we're very busy.

lsx intake maybe you should make them yourself if its that easy.there has been thought that has went behind the intake in runner length taper plenum size etc and things were made the way they are for a reason. why would i copy sum1 else design 4.end of the day its only the prototype and if it doesnt work il do a totally new design. it looks really good in the car its going in.

Ok, design question. 95% of all the LSx based sheet metal intakes I've seen the transition from the throttle body to the plenum is a gradual increase. With this intake that isn't so and the throttle body tube looks like a circlular peg in a square hole. Why is that?
Or you could shut the **** up and realize I was asking a design based question. You also fail to notice the fact that I complemented the person who made it and agreed with the above comment.

Looks trick! 
It looks and seems like the round peg in the square intake couldn't hurt flow as apposed to the traditional/gradual increase necks.
Who knows?? Maybe these guys will give us some numbers with this 438" Beast!
