does anyone have a recomendation for a manifold for the 305 tbi the autozone down the road has the edelbrock performer but its not an egr manifold is there like an egr block or something i have to buy or am i just gonna have to order the egr manifold (i dont have to pass emissions)

 

what do u mean... egr block? do u mean egr valve? do u know what it is in the first place? Are u running a carb/tbi? What are you trying to do here? Details please and then we can help u better!

 

Those manifolds would be fine but the are usually 87 an ealier heads.

 

sorry for not being specific im trying to keep the egr but use a carb manifold with a TBI unit i have read alot about people doing it and i was just wondering a few details about it i dont know the difference in egr and non egr and i dont really know what it is at all other than it pumps exhaust gasses into the cylinder to cool it i have been told i already have my A.I.R. system removed and i have no catylatic convertorthanks for any help

 

oh i forgot to mention this in the last reply but i have center bolt vortec heads it is a 92 305 TBI

 

i would get an egr manifold to keep it simple 4 u... but... instead of just getting a manifold and being very disappointed with the result of $150... i would save up for some heads/cam. Intake should come later. just my .02

but... also... go to summit's website or call them up. i dont know if i want an intake manifold from autozone... im not big on buying anything but oil/filters/light bulbs from there.

 

i was also thinking about roller rockers but then again i dont know what brand or size to get and after that how hard they are to install the intake manifold is an edelbrock performer for 87 and under sb chevy

 

Auto zone sells edelbrock intakes, but i dont think they have the ones for vortecs on hand they will have to order them. These are some good alternitives.

Did you or someone else put the vortec heads on your car? If in fact you do actually have vortec heads then you will have to get an external egr kit and have it plumbed into your exhuast system. The heads themself do not have the exhuast crossover ports as standard sb chevy heads do.
