I'm going sheetmetal with an LS7 that I'm building, and came across these guys. I've never heard of them... anyone?

no, but did you see that it is 3" taller than plastic manifolds, which means aftermarket hood.

This is not mine and also not a F Body but this guy installed one on a TTLS2 (See page 7 of thread as the earlier post shows a Hogan but he switched)

I know a builder that uses them when they build 400+ cu inch motors with turbos. He said they dont make any more power than the plastic intakes out there, but look better and hold up to lots of boost. Other than those things he said he wouldnt waste the money.

Since you are gonna turbo it, and Camaros always need the bling..I'd say go for it.

Those manifolds seem extremely simple compared to looking at a Beck's or Hogan.
