This guy bought his intake from me as I have them in stock. He called me and said he only had 3.5 hrs in the mods necessary to get it on his GTO. Bob

so what does thier TB cost? is it as good as say a Nick williams one?

i think its in the high 300-low 400 range , and while its a cast tb vs billet , i think having the idle air-by pass gives it the edge over the NW tb , plus edlebrock gives you a new IAC and TPS sensor with the tb for that price

i dont remember on the NW is the throttle shaft was cut down for air flow , i do know the eldebrock is cut down

intersting. im thinking about using this intake on my 374 (3.905bore, 3.9 stroke) ls1 F1 procharged motor. i just don't want to be stuck with a untunable tb like the early fasts were.

also the throttle blade has a regular idle adjustment like a old school carb does

i think youd be happy with the edelbrock tb

im using the 4 barrel version currently on my LS1 goat , which came off my friends 403 truck , and has been trouble free and works great

make sure and talk to richard at west coast , he can get you both and port it , unless you like doing your own porting

i think i remember him saying the intake might need porting to match the 317's ive got , the vic jr ive got needed porting though

your going to have to extend the wiring on the map sensor and tb sensors and make custom lines for the pvc system and brake boster hoses and evap hose
In ur first pic,Cant u drill new holes in ur fuelrail to match the intake?
