Im pretty sure that the LT-4 heads are not a completely raised port (like many assume it is), but just the rasied roof........this is what was explained to me some time back by a reputable engine builder when I was considering purchasing a pair...........

so basically the LT4 head port is just a little taller..so using the LT1 intake wont really disrupt the airflow jsut slow it down a little due to the velocity factor going from the LT1 intake port to the larger LT4 head port..

The angle on the plane where the head and intake meet are different if I remember right.
Sucks that they quit making LT4 intakes... guess they'll shoot up to prices of Minirams now.. Sounds more and more like a LS2 swap for me.

Yeah the intake will fit right above each runner you might have to weld up the intake for the material you remove its just the roof of the runner is raised my porter was going to port my heads to LT4 gaskets and i was going to have to weld on the intake and i said **** on that i was on a budget and wanted to get my car done
