Before someone tells you the L99 intake is wrong they got the same intakes as LT1s so no trouble there. I think if you google there is actually a guy who converts them relatively cheaply instead of you having to figure it all out. Believe the TPI crowd was his main target audience.

its a fair amount of work to do it. when i did mine i used the oil pump drive shaft hole as a locator to punch the bottom of the intake. i used a carbide cutter to open the hole up it fit the dist. then i used my tig to build up the area around the hole for a flat surface. also had to make a bolt/hold down pad. you will more than likely need to cut off the egr pads and weld the holes shut.

well i kinda wish i could run a opti ye may sound crazy but it gives me the nicer tuneing of the lt1 ecu and then i don't have to cut a hole for a dizzy ,and maybe i could run the lt1 pully setup
