, and then tell me how much compression you can't run (not to mention nitros/fi) with cylider walls that thin. Do some people take genI alloy castings and "LT1ify" them? LS1 Tech Stories

If it is like all other Edelbrock parts it will be junk, they are still living of past glories of the 60's and 70's. AS for the extreme price of the LT4 I would rather spend the money and get a sheet metal intake made for a little more. I will stick with my LT1 ported intake, ET heads, and CC306 and spray the **** out of the car till it gives up. With the shot I am going to go with it should run like a raped ape.

Sheet metal intake, for just a little more? Replace "a little" with a lot. At least this intake will be middle ground and fill a void. As long as you dont LOSE any power and the price is $300 and below you cant lose and it will only help ltx owners.
I will be the first person to to own one of these intakes, it should be here next week sometime. We are getting one of Brock's prototypes...so yeah! I will post pictures as soon as it comes in.
