Sent him an email asking for more pics of it taken apart or at least head on. Because of it was made by Accel FOR the LT1, it won't have the coolant crossover or Dist hole Which that pic doesn't reveal due to the TB and angle

We know that, it's the part about it, supposedly, being ACTUALLY for an LT1 and not TPI.

There was one made for a short while for the LT1. To put it bluntly it basically sucked and they stopped making it. I remember an old super ram vs LT1 style comparison a while ago floating around on the internet where they where ran back to back on the same engine.

Bit of a rare oddity, but that is about it.

Wow pretty cool. I remember seeing that manifold on one or two 383 Trans Ams that Ligenfelter built back in '94-'95.

YOU CAN SEE A DIST. HOLE IN THE BACK OF MANIFOLD. Doesn't look like a newer LT1 manifold to me.

Yes the Accel intake was put on a few Lingenfelter LT1 builds. Hugely overpriced and not worthwhile. It may give a huge torque gain but wont keep up on high rpm HP.

Far as the distributor hole, maybe that is be cause it was converted TPI piece.

When those do sell they do go for BIG money because benchracers who claim street cars love them.

YEA THAT'S BECAUSE HE PUT MORE PICS UP THAT I REQUESTED. You can see the water passage up front too, and the TPI style fuel line location.

Here's what I told the dude heh
"Thank you! Sadly though, for that price I'm going to have to pass. Would be too much work to convert my car over to use it (fuel lines, EGR, oil pump drive, etc). I can get a fully converted Stealth Ram for $550 :\ Good luck on the auction!"
