I have an 86 Lg4. Its got full exhuast 2.5" no cat. Im tuning the car to have full opening AV over the secondaries along with a G hanger and CK rods. What would be the best intake manifold for my car?
I also don't have a smog pump so i don't really want an EGR valve.

The 750 Q-jet will be alright, possably less efficient than a lower CFM carb. Q-jets tend to run a larger CFM rate than holleys or carters for the same app.

The 7501 is a squarebore, would need an adapter to mount the q-jet.
Neither the 2101 nor 2601 have EGR.
The height from the engine to the carb mount are identical between the 2101 and 2601.
The 3701 would be fully legal.
The EGR valve has nothing to do with the A.I.R. system ("smog pump", as you called it).
Edelbrock Performer series 2101 as Kid said.....without the EGR. I think it's 2401 with the EGR. Every article and application I have read always uses one of those two. Funny part is whenever they use the one with the EGR, they always block it off. Never understood why but maybe Kid could shed some light on it.
Kid is right, it's 3701 not 2401 like I said.

i realize that egr and smog pump (a.i.r) have nothing to do with each other, I was just pointing out that im already not legal so i might as well not worry about it. But thank you.
I like the EPS airgap one. Good rpm rage for the stock cam. Do you know if the 2601 will fit under the hood? Would it be a good intake for me? I think it will but i tend to rely on everything five7kid says haha.

You cannot beat an Edelbrock 7104 Performer RPM Spreadbore for a street driven Q-Jet fed engine. It has sharp response at ALL engine RPMs and gets good gas mileage. I had one on my 305 in my fullsize van. No complaints at all. Nudge the gas and it was pulling.

According to Summit, the 2601 will not fit under the hood of a Corvette, so I would assume it won't fit under the hood of an F-Body either. 2101 and 3701 will fit with no problem. 2101 has no EGR and is also $35 cheaper!
A friend of mine dropped off a 2101 manifold for me recently he has no use for. I have an 87 camaro and summit says it is only good to 86. Is that because my heads are center bolt? It also doesn't have EGR. Does that mean I can't use it or can I just block it off and forget about it without any codes popping up?

The 2601 is the Air Gap version of the 2101 therefore it'll fit wherever a 2101 fits.

If you run a FI engine without the EGR, it will definitely throw code.

I have a Q-jet, so does that mean this manifold I have will fit my 305 motor? I just want to be positive before I take my carb, distributor, and other stuff off to find out this 2101 manifold doesn't fit. So does having centerbolt heads make a difference for fitment? I'll just give it to my brother and get the 3706 performer if it doesn't work.
