TPiS MiniRam

[gardnerme]

I know - shot in the dark, but I am looking for a TPiS MiniRam intake manifold in good shape. I don't really need the computer and wiring, but I am looking for the intake and fuel rails (possibly the throttle body as well). I would prefer the one that has already been port matched to the larger intake gaskets, but will consider the smaller as well.

Thanks in advance,
Mike

Mike,

Why not adapt an LT1 intake instead? It's really not hard and they are much easier to find.

Geoff,

I have not ruled that out, but it looks like there are enough things that need to be done with that conversion (remote thermostat housing, drilling the distributer hole, etc.) that I thought I would at least see if someone had the MiniRam first. I am also not sure if you can run a large diameter HEI dizzy with the LT1 intake, but obviously that problem could be solved as well.

Thanks for the suggestion! It is a great idea if I have no luck finding the other.

A friend of mine is the one who did the original article on the LT1 intake swap for Popular Hot Rodding years ago. He did several of the swaps so if you need any tips or suggestions, I'll be glad to ask him.

Just bear in mind that miniram are very tricky to tune if you're using factory GM EFI... just ask anyone (including) me on thirdgen.org!
