Exclamation Intake Manifold question

is the intake manifold on a 93 different then a 94 and up?

found one that is ported to a 58 and its a steal at the price, so i was a little curious if it will match up before i buy it.

The later manifolds will bold on but the fuel rail connections are in a different spot and the later fuel rails are different as well. There really any advantage to switching to a later manifold as you can easily port yours to 58mm. I used a 1-1/2" drum sanding roll in a dremel tool and it probably didn't take 2 hours.

unless you are pushing 400 hp you will see little to no gains with a 58mm tb.
