lt4 carbed intake? where or how? K I am so tired of trying to find someone to tune and dyno my car as nobody here in utah seems to tune LT motors, either software or whatever seems to be my issue. my motor is built strong 396 stroker with AFR lt4 heads.
I am thinking I want to go to Carb and dizzy and be done with the fuel injection.
So my question?
Is there a intake I can machine to fit my lt4 heads or am I stuck looking for the unavailable lt4 gmpp carb intake or just stick with this injection pain in the butt.
what are my options?

Seen it just means 2000 plus dollars then still need to tune blah!
I think I want carb and dizzy,
I have seen guys with I believe Victor Jr's that they remachine and run a throttle body or custom hat and ls1 tb.
But why not carb, is fuel injection that much better if you can't tune it.

Convert any single plan e SBC intake to LT1 bolt pattern, drop engine to install distributor, pray it doesn't break, and then run a cowl hood to clear carb, dunno what kinda air filter you would run unless you fabbed up so sort of CAI to attach to it.
Prob won't be all that cheaper than just going 24x

I'm not fully up to speed on 24x conversions...but from what I gather, it's tuned just like an Ls1 then. Being that they are more popular it should be easier to get a tune done. Another bonus is the software to DIY is cheaper. Of course I could be wrong about all of this.
not that easy converting the bolt angles on any sbc to fit the lt4 heads. lt1's yes seen it done before even seen 18* bowties heads on a lt1 with a sb2 intake I have a carbed lt1 intake from gmpp nvr got the swap off the ground thou went back to FI
