New LT4 Intake
New LT4 Intake Well i finally got my LT4 intake and 58mm Throttle Body on
here are the pics?
Bought it used thinking it was an LT1 intake then i looked at all the castings and numbers and turns out it was an original LT4 intake, so i had it acid dipped and powdercoated Bengal Red then ported it out to 58mm for the new throttle body.
The old intake (For sale)
Tell me what you think? getting ready to leave wednesday for the big POCI Pontiac Car show in Tulsa, Oklahoma

Seems no matter how many times we try to crush the LT4 intake myths though there are still lots of guys who believe it is more than it is.
^^^ But he didn't pay a premium for it nor was he looking for it. Just wound up with it. He probably gave what, $60 for it????? Personally I would have tried to sell it for what I could get out of it and then buy the LT1 intake.
I tried buying one at retail when I realized they were going through the roof but Summit was already out. I wanted to hop on the bandwagon and sell for $$$$$$. I didn't score any, I was too late.
