will this intake manifold fit properly?
i found this on ebay, but in the description it says that the "The center 4 bolt holes were widened" will that at all effect installing this unit on my 92 l03? the link is below. thanks.

That manifold will bolt right on. I have it and it was not 4 or 5 hundred new. I paid 220 for it I think maybe even 200 on sale. You do not have to widen the bolt holes since you have 87+ heads. He says there isn't any glue but I hope he was refering to RTV and not seriously glue. Besides that, that is a good price and those 4 holes will not affect the way the manifold seats. He said the gains were impressive but I will tell you they won't be. Your stock intake is adequate for your stock cam and you may not feel any gain at all. I know that I didn't. Your car may be smoother throughout the curve but nothing more than a few ponies. It will help down the road though with another cam and or heads swap. Also, you cannot port that intake for "more power" as he claims because the water jackets are very close to the bores. If anything you can chamfer the edges down so that you can run a 2" bore TBI unit in the future. That is the only downside of that intake. I hope I helped.
