LT4 intake manifold

Re: LT4 intake manifold
LT4 intake will not bolt onto lt1 heads...ports and angles are different i beleive.
there isn't much hp to be gained in them, it's just that they are different to accomodate the different heads.
so don't worry about it

Requires LT4 cylinder head conversion.
After spending $200+ for the intake, and then having it machined, you can bolt it up. The gains from this will be approximately "0" HP. Although the intake runners of the LT4 heads is 0.100" taller than the ones in the LT1 heads, the LT1 and LT4 manifold runners are virtually identical. There is no difference in the openings... the LT4 intake simply has more metal at the top of the runner so they can be ported to match LT4 heads. The LT4 intake doesn't match thte LT4 heads as shipped from the factory.
All of this has been posted many times and could have been found with a "Search"

So are you saying it is not worth it?

I know what you mean. http://community.webshots.com/photo/...65054499BDeYjW
What kind of fitting did you use in the fuel rail cross over pipe for the return?

Re: LT4 intake manifold
Its a cut down stub of a -6AN fitting welded to the cross-over tube.
