holley 670 on a edelbroch performer tbi intake?

will it fit? My guess is no. I bought the edelbrock tbi intake and didn't know that it wouldn't fit a holley. I could be wrong. I'm sure u guys know.

I'm pretty sure the Edelbrock TBI intake has 1-11/16" bores like the stock TBI unit. If you can't return the manifold or don't think it's worth it to try to sell, you could bore it too 2"...

Yes it will fit. Because the holley should have come with an adapter that reduces the 2" Holley bores to the little stock bores. So you'll have a Holley 2" bore TBI but is forced to go back to the stock size.

Yes it did come with the adapter plate. At least know i know it fits, but i'm still thinking of getting another intake. I haven't heard any good things about the one i have.

If you want to get rid of your Edelbrock TBI intake, I may be interested in buying it.

Anyway, do the TBI holes look like they can be bored out to 2" without interfering with anything?

I would be very interested in the eddlebrock manifold, for the right price. You should maybee use the Holley TBI manifold especially if it has the 2" bores.

having an adapter to reduce the size of the tb bores to the stock TB bores is one heck of a bright idea lol

You can't bore the edelbrock intake. I have a cutaway pic of it. The walls are too thin.

lol..buy a bigger intake system for over $400 but remember to make it stock size to it doesn't mess up the computer or anything. Now that sounds like a post on some import forum. I go by the bigger is better (most of the time). Please post the cut away view, I'd like to see that too.
I'd either pay the restock fee or sell it to someone and then get the holley proflow manifold. It's that or a carb intake with a 1/2" adaptor from holley, not turbocity (unless you like to spend hours in a shop cleaning up the adaptor).

I went to a spped shop today and was looking at the troquer II. My tbi adapter didn't fit the manifold for some resaon, so i bough the dual plane performer.
