Is it possible to put a TPI on a LT1 or Vortec motor? I'm trying to look for a used motor, and just wondering what all motors (year range) the TPI will bolt to. Any Advice?

 

The TPI manifold will not bolt up to Vortec heads. Scoggin Dickey makes a manifold for the TPI that does bolt up to Vortec heads.

I beleive the TPI could be made to work, but if you bought a LT1....and for some reason it didn't come with the intake, you can pick up a used LT1 intake for almost nothing. I wouldn't even begin to mess with modifying the TPI.
I know the LT1 intake can me modified to fit a gen1 small block, so I imagine the TPI could be modified to fit a gen2 small block. But why would you do that??? Doesn't make any sense.



....I'd try and find a used L98. You can get them for under $1000 easy, if you take the time to shop.

 

Abubaca is right on. That just begs the question, "Why?" Why would anyone choke an LT1 with a TPI? If you can get the LT1 engine as a spare, get the intake as well. The minimal loss in low-end torque will more than be offset with the upper RPM power.
