SLP runner question

will slp non-cold start runners work on a cold start intake? I current have a 9th injector but it is not doing anything other that pluging the hole. Also is a '89 vett intake the same as a fbody?

i'm not sure about your first question but the vette intake should be the same as the Camaro. the only differance i could possibly think of would be the EGR valve location. i think some came out near the rear of the intake.

IIRC, Corvette EGR valves were bolted to the exhaust manifold instead of being underneath the plenum. There was a pipe that fed exhaust gas from the valve to the rear of the intake manifold. This was because the Corevette aluminum heads didn't have the center exhaust passages cast in them.

I have an old Edelbrock TPI base and it came with a block-off plate for the the Corvette pipe.
