I am looking at this set-up and wonder what intake this is..

Also is it a good one? It comes with a SPEED DENSITY SYSTEM also.

Tnanks..

Looks like a speed density (90-92) TPI setup with stock fuel injectors and SLP runners. Looks like the top plate of the throttle body is missing... Can't tell whether the intake base is stock or not...

THANKS,,

Sorry for the simple question but this is my first GM car ever bought for hot rodding. and the first car I bought for hot rodding in ten years. I am kinda WAY out of the loop with this but I want to learn.

The guy wants $900.00 for it and says it has been simonized but I think I will pass.. Seems like I could do just as well with my system and the same runners.

Yeah, $900 is a little much even if it is an aftermarket base manifold...

Thanks again all,,

I got it out of the guy that the base plate was stock. I just seen a set of SLP runners sell on ebay for $180.00 and they are only $250 new. It did have an adjustable regulator but that is only like a $65.00 part.

If I had no TPI system at all I could maybe see it but from reading this forum I cant see anything that great in the deal.

He was going to give me $450.00 off for a blown NOVI-2000 I have. Personally I think he just wanted my blower.

I think I will send my blower out to get rebuilt and put that on my car. I seen a few good posts in here where others have done that and I bet it will be a bigger gain than this intake will give me.

Thanks for all you help again. This is the best forum I have found for this car.
