Hey Tiago... isn't that the intake off James Montigny's old Firebird? or did NRT fabricate another one for you?

I haven't talked to James in forever... is he still around?

yep its james.

Wouldn't it be feasible maybe slightly easier to get an LT1 TB, and hack off everything right after the where the TB connects. hack off hte fornt of the 3.4L upper intake manifold, and get soem excess metal and weld them together?

Jsut some thoguhts on the issue.

yes, it is james' old engine. Im glad someone here remembers him, he inspired us all back in the day. I talk to him time to time, hes doing ok, he lost his car last year, but is lookng for a new project


essentially that is what they did, cut the plenum off behind the tb and welded some extended runners leading to the LT1 TB.
