Default Chevy imitates Saleen?

This is for the new LS9. I see some similarities between this SC design and the Saleen Series VI. Inside the casing are two intercoolers.

Hate to break the news but the upside down blower design has been done well before the Series 6 design. I am not saying the series 6 is bad. Chevy should have copied Saleen and used one large intercooler instead of two,those cast coolant lines looks terrible.
