its my bday coming up, and i was thinkign about getting new intake runners for my TPI and a new plenum to go along with it...i know a few months ago i was lookign at this stuff, and i found a high flow plenum but now i can't seem to find it...i'm going with the SLP runners, is this a good choice, or are there better ones out there? If anybody knows wehre i can find a highflow plenum please tell me, thanks..

if u want a "high flow" plenum, get a dremel and open the holes up to match ur new runners.

thats probably what i'll end up doing, but I can't believe i can't find it...it was only like 150 bucks, and I think that would be worth it.

I'd personally save the money that you'd spend on the SLP runners and get a Holley Stealth Ram. It's $500 for the intake, plenun, and fuel rail with adjustable fuel regulator.
Another $60 or so for some fuel lines, $5 for a new thermostat housing, and whatever it costs for a small cap distributor and remote coil.

i was gonan just go witht he stealth ram intake...actually that has been my plan up until now...i have to put my money into other things like rims and a nice new paint job...and i heard to get the most out of HSR intake you have to get your computer reprogrammed and everything, and i just got a brand new computer and some other sensors and stuff and it just cost be 500 bucks, so i dont' think i';m gonna do anything more with my computer..and i just got a new distributor cap and coil, so i definately ain't taken that off, and puting a nother new one on...i was just gonna stick with some easy, and something to dress up the engine room a bit more cause i'm gonna get the polished runners, i will probably get a adjustable fuel pressure regular while i'm rippin into the intake also....so back to my question, vortech or slp runners?

As far as I know, no-one makes a high flow plenum, you port your own. There are better aftermarket runners, and aftermarket bases.

Plenum is pretty much a GM unit, you just port it.

Runners, you have plenty of choices here, LPE, TPIS, AS&M, ACCEL, quite a few others, even if they are the same product only rebadged. The same goes for bases too.

alright, i'll just port the upper plenum by myself, but I was searching for some aftermarket bases, and i found some results of the vortech base with vortech runners, but i can't seem to find any place where you can buy the product....can somebody help me out with like a aftermarket parts online site....thanks...
