Interesting. I wonder how well it will hold up to forced induction.

Nice to see one for an LT, but $1100...

As long as the motor is popular, so will the prices on parts remain high.

That's a lot for sure. My LT1 427 picked up 30whp by porting the stock manifold without any tuning changes. I'm in talks with Precision now about making a sheet metal intake but I'm still interested in testing this out!

Price doesn't seem too outrageous IF it performs well, considering there isn't another aftermarket LT1 intake manifold option at the moment (that I'm aware of).

Their LS version seems in the ballpark considering that a FAST 102 & 92 is ~$950. Big quesiton is if it will out perform a FAST, the guy says it gave HP increase over a ported aftermarket option without specifying brand...

also keep in mind that is suggested "retail" pricing... I would expect it to sell slightly less than that, maybe 100-200 dollars less.. They have to remain competitive with FAST at the end of the day...

First it needs to fit under the cowl on our C5's.

I needed lowering mounts on mine for the Fast 102.
