Before I would purchase a car intake for your truck I would PM Tony Mamo @ AFR to get the lowdown. He is R&D Manager for AFR and a FAST intake guru with countless hours porting intakes with the use of a flowbench.

Best of luck with your combo
I've read through a lot of the posts on LS1tech and several show that when a good set of heads (even factory) are paired up with the truck intake and then put on a flowbench the intake chokes off plenty of flow. Right now when I go WOT I have a small vacuum dip, so the engine is wanting more air than what my intake can provide and I've ruled out the airbox. I don't think the factory manifold is nearly as good as the FAST truck manifold.

Maybe try one of those TVS belt driven manifolds

Supercharging it will be kind of a "last resort". I have thought about it.
