I realize the base will have a lot bigger ports but is the bolt pattern the same? Also wondering if i could use a gm fuel rail also? thanks for any help

The bolt patters for the runners are different as well as the fuel rails. Neither the SR runners or the stock TPI fuel rails are "bolt on" items and both would require a good bit of modification to work on the FIRST.

Yep, the First TPI system is a completely different setup. Its still a LTR design but nothing is compatible, not even the throttle body.

There has been some hogged out SLP runners that were made to fit the first base to flow over 300CFM but it was a load of work....there is a nice thread about it some place!!
We need some one to make a SR setup to fit a first base!!
