Default Trouble with Skunk2 IM on an LS?

hey guys,
Just wondering if anyone had heard anything or had experience with the fitment of the Skunk2 Intake Manifold on an LS (b18A1, 92 Teg). The mounting holes didnt line up (barely, but enough to drill) and it leaves no room for my AEM fuel pressure regulator between the stock fuel rail and the IM. Im going to have to do the cut-the-top-half-off thing with a b16 regulator and the AEM top to make it fit.

anyone else had problems? suggestions?

No, I had the same problem with mine! Drill out the holes. As far as the FPR goes, there is nothing you can do about it

Thats what I used to think, but I think Skunk2 is a shitty company with poor quality control. I used to have Skunk2 cam gears, but all they did was jump teeth.
