There is an intake sold like this setup now. I wonder if that intake manifold even works though... Looks clean!

GM said that motor is a 6.6 liter. I'm willing to bet it is running a C5R aluminum block on a stock LS1 stroke. Notice the valve covers? That would explain the custom intake as well. Also, it is running a Bosch type fuel injector and wire harness. I guess that would be one more reason why that bad boy never made it to production.

Where is the MAF? I'm assuming its directly in front of the TB.

Boy, that's a thing of beauty...

I like how it's so clean it looks like a non-runner... but it has all those lovely GM partswe see in our engine bays.

I like the battery location. Looks better up there and makes all that room up front.

Isn't that a Holden intake manifold?
Or maybe a Katech?

The engine is 4 inch stroke and 4 inch bore.
The intake is prototype made for trucks by gm, the stock truck manifold is better on stock displacement.
The block is stock sleeved.
The heads are stock cnc ported ls1's.
