    LT2 intake on L83

    Has anyone confirmed this fits? I work for GM and thought about using a scrap LT2 intake on my built L83. I also have the 87 mm TB but wondered if you could use the Holley 103 on it. I know the runners are longer in this than the L86. Just curious if anyone has tried this yet.

    Would the throttle body be facing the wrong way, though?

    You have to grind off some ribs on the bottom to clear the high pressure fuel pump---if you still are running it. The map sensor is on the pass side so you have to split off the wires and relocate. The port on the tb housing is in a different spot so you need to re route the hose.

    Yes, I have done this twice on LT1 Camaro

    GPI - they modify it for you, & include MAP ext cable.

    Second, moved to Wilson Manifolds - they port it & modify, $800, but it really pulls hard and I was focused on keeping it all GM. Also did the LT1 hot cam.
