Accel Runners

I can get a good deal on these accel runners ( they were part of a LPE StreetRam setup part no. 74130), unfortunatly the guy who wants to sell them doesn´t have a clue from what engine they came off... he doesn´t know if they have the cold start injector.
Does anyone of you know, or can anyone tell by looking at the picture if they have the cold start injector, because I would need one.
Thank you,
Alex

See the tab in the upper left of picture, by the EGR runner. The bigger hole is for a cold start injector.

you can still use those if you have an 89+f-body.you'll just need to plug up the cold start injector hole.

I forgot one thing though, the guy who is selling them isn't sure if they come with all the bolts ... anyone know what bolts and gaskets I need in order to be able to use them ? (part No. 's appreciated )

you can reuse the bolts out of your existing runners i believe. and for the gaskets you could go to a place like NAPA or Autozone and get stock gaskets. however i reccommend Accel's gaskets, they have larger holes and will fit those runners openings better. you can find teh part #S for those gaskets on accel's website

by the way you may need to so a little port matching of your stock plenum and base to get the most gain out of those runners.

You can order the high flow gasket set from LPE. Part # is LN00010, cost $19.95. I don't mean to belittle you, but you not being able to easily tell that these runners have the ninth injector hole leads me to believe that you are not mechanically in tune with your vehicle. I recommend you take it to a shop to have the plenum and lower intake removed and ported to match the gaskets and re-installed. Or buy a good illustrated manual.
