Easier said than done. In reality theres no telling what a shop will charge, or how good thier skill level is, to do that kind of work when working with aluminum especially. You can adjust the intake to fit LT4 heads, but it won't be "exactly" like an LT4 intake they're two different castings all together.
I think people are misslead about the LT4 Intake. It's not a performance upgrade piece, it's just the "proper" intake for a matching set of GM heads.
