I thought the same thing,but some people on LS1tech.com think that they would.

 

didnt you notice the 2 different part #'? 7107/LT1 and 7109 for LT4?

 

Yep, no longer made, and unfortunately if you want a GM LT4 intake, you will pay an outrageous price.

 

hmmm, I seem to remember a few threads where a few of us called that one. You will be luck to ever see this Edelbrock unit.


But to answer your original question... YES you can buy one used, No you cannot buy one new anymore. You can convert an LT1 to work, but you will find the money you spend on welding, porting and powdercoating witll end up in the same ball park as a real LT4 used.

I picked up an LT4 used here for $650. it came with polished vette fuel rails which I then sold for $140. So after the shipping the LT4 cost me a little under $550. I ported it myself and its sitting on my motor now.

 

why put people through all that builup, expecting a decent alterntive product, just to drop it?

 

is the LT1 intake from edelbrock continued as well?

 

I e-mailed edembrock yesterday about the LT4 manifold and this is what i got back........

"At this time they are scheduled to be released early Feb."

 

If you search this topic you will find that they have been saying this for almost a year. Every month they change the month part. I got the exact same email sever times over a period of 9 months. Each time they changed the date.

Its like they have a blanket response and all they have to do is fill in the month.

Guys, they debued this manifold at SEMA 2005!!!!!! its January 2007 and its still not out yet! Yes I spoke to them in person about it 26 months ago! My advice is to move on and find something else. You will be waiting a long time so dont hold your breath!

Thats what I did and it only cost me an extra $100 and I got a genuine LT4 intake. Its well worth it to spend the extra $100 and get a genuine LT4 manifold NOW. Edelbrock I am sure is here on this board lurking. They havent chimed in because they just dont know when it will be released. Does this sound familiar?

Gee I think its 1995 again...
