Default Victor Jr EFI Intake?

I have a heads and cam Firehawk and i just purchased the efi edlebrock intake, 90mm NK, elbow, and fuelrails for it. The only question i have is how do i adapt the map sensor for this intake? Is there some sort of plug-in translater ?

Just run a vacume line from the intake to your map sensor.

the some of Victor Edelbrock Sr...

if it was me, i would either machine the manifold, or weld/machine/attach it to the elbow...
while there are 1000s of other GM and other cars using a vacuum line between the MAP sensor and the manifold, i still prefer the shortest, most direct approach... plus if you do it right, you cant really see it.

I don't think you should mess with it. Instead, keep what you have, get disappointed with the whole thing, ..... then sell me all the parts you have for a cheap deal

J/k ... that is totally what I want/need for my street car. G/L

depends..... some elbows with an aggressive turndown will.... others will not. The intake fitting depends on the elbow.

If you look on your intake right below where the elbow sits there is already a place to screw in a barb style fitting. That is for your map sensor. Look in that bag of crap they gave you.
