Default Intake swap ?

I was wondering if a 2013 silverado square port L92/L96 truck intake manifold will fit on a 2007 impala ss ls4 5.3 and if it will work better then the ls6 intake that everyone does?

Yeah I was until I seen this truck intake,thought I could get away with this one cause it is a lot cheaper.Im bidding on a ls6 intake on eBay right now so I guess I'll just stick to that then

For any intake to work with the LS4, it must be for a cathedral style intake port (and fit under the hood).

LS1, LS2, LS6 are the only stock options from cars, and any truck intake from a 4.8 or 5.3 will bolt on (might not clear the hood). Then there are the aftermarket intakes...

^This.

You can't put a rectangular port intake on cathedral port heads.
