Don't bother.

People get too hung up on the intake because it always was a good mod on gen1s and is a good mod on gen3s. The LT1 on the otherhand has a decent but not perfect manifold that works well for a WIDE range of purposes. When you get to the point of ported heads then let the head porter do the intake with them.
