I saw it in the new Issue of GMHTP. I couldnt find it anywhere on the web so I just called Edelbrock and got it straight through them. I dont remember the cost they havenet charged my card yet. I just told them "I dont care about the details I want this Intake" and gave them my card number.

this same thing happened years ago when they originally came out w/ it.. they never released it.. But for edelbrock to take a order for one directly is crazy, summit isn't even listing it yet. and they always have pic's before product's.. Hmm be interesting to see if it's worth anything over a lt1 intake.. My suggestion would be to get one only if you need a lt4 intake for your afr's or lt4 heads.. the minimal gain over a lt1 intake might not be worth the 4-500 dollars' they're going to want for it..

You may want to call them, because I have an 'insider' there, and as of 3 weeks ago, the only thing that they had was a part number for it. They don't even have a mold or a prototype for it yet. You'lll probably be waiting a while for it!

Read my post above... I have a VERY reliable source there, and that's exactly what he told me!

I was wanting one for my new motor, but they won't be available till at least spring, if not summer of 07.

I am confused. A buddy of mine was at a race event two or three months ago and went to the Edelbrock display in hopes of getting new information about LT1/LT4 manifolds. They told him the manifold was coming out "very soon." They even gave him literature on the new Edelbrock LT1/LT4 manifolds WITH pics! I called him just now and he is bringing me the brochure. As soon as he gets it to me (next several hours) I will photograph it a post it. If your insider friend is correct, and they don't even have a model or prototype for it, I can only gather that either its some kind of secret known by a choice few, or they just took a pic of an actual GM LT1/LT4 intake and passed it off for their own!

Well, considering my friend is friends with one of the development engineers, and that's what he was told I'd say it's a pretty accurate source.

Edlebrock has been saying that the intake is coming out 'very soon' for a very long time now. It was supposed to come out last spring, then last summer, then last fall, then this spring, then this summer... see the trend?
