Glad to see you and your grinder are still keeping busy, Tony!
Just curious, have you or any of your customers got any feedback regarding fitment issues of the new 102 FAST on C5's? I've seen a couple people claiming they had to lower the engine cradle to get the new intake to clear the cowl... not something I'll be doing to my car, playing with suspension geometry and all just to clear an intake!
Would there be enough extra "meat" on the rear portion of the intake that enough material could be removed for proper clearance without creating an area on the intake that's too thin?
EDIT: Also, which port style are you showing in your example (and also the style chosen for your new head)? LS1/6 cathedral, LS3 or LS7?
