John I must say that your website is sweet..... I am going to do the conversion and so is my friend with a BAD @$$ 86 jet black Vette. I also found a very easy was to drill the holes with a drill press on the lt1 manifold so the match the pre 87 Heads. Im currently taking pics. The real reason I posted this was becuase ive had a bunch of people asking me and others if we had extra LT1 Manifolds to sell so I think you should post a link on where to get that LT4 manifold that that company sells that they mill the sides and paint it red for $250..... sorry i dont remember the link, but i bet someone knows it or you do?

It might but all you need to do is port the LT1 intake and you have a LT4 intake.

The reason i told you was because everyone is looking for LT1 manifold to mod....... and that one is priced pretty cheaply at $250......... just thought it would give you more business to.

Good idea, it's the expensice way to go. I mean after all it doesn't even include fuel rails. Did you know fuel rails are $450 at the dealer?
I would hold till I found a used LT1 intake preferable with rails. I got mine for $100.

D#mn that's high!

Those dudes gotta be clearing some jack! Hell, I could could port two intakes and spray em in a day. They're probably just getting the cores from junk yards porting them and just spraying them to cover all the f*ck ups.
I bought the entire intake for $150. If I had connections like them it'd probably be $50.
Most junk yards will just about give the lt1 intake away on blown engines. The last looked at me and said what the hell are you going to do with that! I wasn't even going to try to explain. If I did he'd just jacked up the price.
