LT1 intake?

I have heard and read that several people are using the LT1 intake set up. I have had some LT1's and love them but hate the dreaded OPTI. What all is involved in running th eLT1 intake? what is being used to fire the injectors? Any info or links would be greatly appreciated.

The distributor get shimmed so it's in the right place and you have to use an external t-stat housing also.

it looks pretty good, and I haven't heard of any complaints with the newer models. I plan to get one soon myself, after I figure out which cam i'm going to use.
