Cheap cast alu intake manifolds on eBay
I was looking for a cheap intake manifold to drill some nitrous into and came across this for $339:
https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?m...2F182210484104
It says it’s for a gen v LT1, but I’m dubious about the fit because the throttle body snout is angled upwards instead of downwards in a normal LT1 intake.
Has anyone got a take on this?

Hmm, wonder how much meat is in that casting?
Certainly from China but would be interested in seeing some testing both on a bench and sonic done.
Would look sweet polished up!

Yeah it probably is trouble. I’m just trying to work out exactly what it’s deal is. For example, why does it have screw holes on the top of it, when it’s obviously not going to work with the original plastic trim?? Is it maybe an design adapted from LS?
