I am thinking about doing the Lt1 cam swap and i figure since all the intake has to come off there anyway... what better time than to put a new one on there soooooo... what does everyone use for an intake.. and what is the best... one more question how much does the intake cost i don't wanna spend too much but i am not cutting corners on this project either so lets hear your oppinions!~!

I was wondering the same thing, I was concidering one of the follwing.
Weiand Stealth
Edelbrock RPM Performer
Edelbrock Jr. Victor

And then use a TBI->carb plate adapter.

Chris

where can you get the TBI-CARB intake adapter

and also by putting a LT1 cam and new intake would I notice much of a difference in 1/4 mile times go.. with whats in my sig + new parts what would be a guess at what i could run(times that is) ....thanks

Holley sells the adapter, I think it was JPrevost who got it for like $11-12 or something like that. I for get the company he got it from. Do a search I'm sure you can find it. It was on a few threads.

Chris

I got this one. $95. I haven't put it on yet so I don't know how it will turn out. http://www.holley.com/HiOctn/ProdLin...AMSM/7547.html
$12 carb intake to TBI adapter is from www.pawinc.com

I don't see an EGR provision on that manifold. I know NJ Speeder uses a Holley manifold of some sort, and it is emissions legal.

ya its not smog CA legal. Tims manifold is 49 state legal. It doesn't have CA E.O. number for smog cars.

thanks..so this lil adapter will allow me to fit any carb intake for the small block chevy

Just a thought, single plane vs dual plane would be a good totw...

I know its come up a few times, but not really recently

I'm using the Holley 300-36 dual plane manifold. I didn't realize that this manifold was for 1955-1986 heads, so I had to modify the bolt pattern, and run a T-connector off of the vacuum hole to get the brake booster, and the distributer vacuum to work properly. A friend of mine made some sheet metal throttle linkage extenders to reach the old wires. That swap was a PITA. But now that it is done, I am really glad that I did it. The car didn't lose a thing down low, and has really picked up some power up top.

I've run 13s with the following manifold.
Had to cut out the EGR tunnel, and cut back the runner roofs, and the plate cost $20, and then manifold $10.
So I have a total of $30 in the manifold and some elbow grease.
Just some food for thought..
