New style of sheet metal intake manifold (pics)
60 lbs of boost and it came apart? What a piece of junk! LOL

I don't know how it runs but it looks hot. Get the top one piece and put a nice paint job on it. It'll be bad ***. Just hope it runs as good as it looks.

Not trying to hijack this thread, but has anyone seen or used the Wilson intake? I just happen to be searching their site looking for a carb style nitrous plate and low and behold there was an LSx style intake that looked quite similar to this one. It was just a 3d drawing so I am not sure it even exist, but thought I would ask. One difference I did notice was it had longer runners that extended into the plenum.

The ls7 style manifold is severly chokin the heads, and i gained 70 hp from a ported ls7 manifold to a sheetmetal intake, 640 hp jumped to almost 720 hp
I will try and make something like that you have shown here, and then we can compare.
