TBSS Intake on Firebird
Hey everyone,
I know they'll fit a Camaro, but since my since my google-foo has failed me, does anyone knows whether a TBSS intake will fit under a firebird hood or not?
Thanks!

Re: TBSS Intake on Firebird
I don't have an official answer for you but the tbss height is approximately the same as a stealth ram. If the lsx valley is at the same height as a sbc with 'saggy' mounts then it'll be close with some hood brace trimming. HSRs fit so that leads to me saying maybe... but that's a big maybe. There's a lot of variables that may say nope.

Re: TBSS Intake on Firebird
I think there are too many variables to say for sure. Mounts and k member could change what sits where. I recall you being in the middle of a swap? Set a short or long block in and take some measurements, maybe?
