Default LS7 Intake work for C5R heads

Does anyone know if they LS7 intake will work for C5R head or the C5R ET GIII 240/255 heads. I heard rumor that it might. If not, someone that can make a sheet metal intake for me.

Also interested in finding the part number for C5R valve covers.

Thanks.

I know I would prefer a ls7 manifold over a sheetmetel one just because they perform much better "under the curve". You will make slightly more peek hp with a sheet metal one but you will loose hp every whare else. Has anywone has done this LS7/C5R combo?

That would be my preference. Hoping someone here knows the answer. Or at least knows if they match up.
