What years are my intakes from???

I have 2 TPI intakes and was just wondering what years they are from.
The casting #'s on the intakes are:
10088015

14081005

My heads have the following #'s
86 LG4 heads 14014416
87 305 heads 14101081

Just wanted to know which intake I should use, I am about to put the 87 305 heads on my car.

Also, I am looking for the fuel line that goes from the chassis to the fuel rail, the one that has rubber hoses on the bottom and metal tubing at the top that attaches to the fuel rail.

Thanks,

The intake 14081005 is for 85 or 86 TPI's with the standard head bolt pattern (90 degree)

The next intake I am pretty sure is a 87-88 TPI with canted center angles and the cold start passage w/ integral EGR (Camaro/Firebird)

I'm not too sure about the heads exept for what you already know about them... The LG4's might have a bigger cumbustion chamber size since they have lower compression (also due to the dished pistons)

Thanks,
I test fitted the 87-88 Intake on the
87 heads and they seem to match.
The 87 heads have a smaller chamber which should bring my compression up a little.
Shouldn't be too long now till I get this puppy running.
