Intake Manifolds

I have a stock 91 rs 305 TBI 5-spd camaro. I want to do some work to the motor like intake manifold, throttle body, cam, and some other stuff. I went to Jegs and they have 3 intake manifolds there: GM LT1 Aluminum Intake Manifold, GM Performance Parts Vortec Intake Manifold with TBI, and GM Performance Parts Aluminum Vortec Intake Manifold. Whats should i get, is there others? SHould i get a LT1 cam? I wanna no what setup i should get.
Thanks

you cant even use those intakes unless you have an TPI induction or Vortec Heads, you would be better off going with a Edelbrock Performer TBI or dual plane Carb intake. I would also recommend the LT1 cam also because you can pick one up for about $50 shipped. And for the TBI, do the Ultimate TBI mods (look under tech articles on home page) and you should be pretty impressed with your gains, considering you already have a Cat back and headers, which in my opinion should be your first mods.

Look at my sig for other ideas

i have no times since the gears, posi, crank pulley, ultimate TBI mods, Stage 1 chip, torque arm, springs, shocks, and struts.

My best before these mods was 15.97 and i think i was running alittle lean, after the L05 350, cam, and intake swap, i hope to be at least in the mid-high 14s with a custom cop car chip.

cool..
With my mods, eddlebrock TES headers, 3"catco, hooker cat back, 14x3 open element, msd plug wires, coil, rotor and cap, 180* thermastat and 3.73's with auborn posi i am running a best time of 15.5 at 88.9 with a 2.2 60 ft .... i also had a busted tranny mount when i ran that time.
Now i am debating on swapping the heads and cam...or just going with a new 330 hp vortec motor. with the vortec i am hopping to be in the mid 13's

Since we are talking about intake manifolds already.........

What other manifolds are available WITH EGR, that will work on a LO5........must be carb intake that can accept EGR then be used with an adapter...

Model numbers & make would help alot.....

Go to Weiand.com and check out the 7525. Looks to be an awesome intake but haven't tried one.
