I need help with a new induction system.
I really don’t know where to post this question. Ok you guys I ran into a pretty big problem just a couple of days ago. I bought some after market heads, they are the Pro Toplightning part number 223400000A with an intake runner of 200cc. So I took my heads to a shop to get them built and I also took my TPI intake in to get port matched. Well they did build my heads but they told me that I could not use the TPI intake with my heads. This is not a big deal; I was just going to get a LT1 intake for it. So I wrote John at ltintake.com and he told me that the LT1 intake would not fit the ports of my new heads just like the TPI intake. My question to you guys is do any of you know of a good fuel injected induction system that I can use on my new heads that offer good flow?? Or will I have to convert to a Carburetor? Please I really need your help guys!!!!

Well there are a few choices
DFI PRo ram will work>>> Mine is ported for 221cc heads with a 1206 medium race gasket>
TPIS Mini ram can be purchased for BIG heads...It comes set up to like a 1206 fel pro I believe with room to further open up..
ALSO you CAN USE any intake you want actually...To use a tpi intake you just have to get more material welded on the ends...Hard to explain without a pic...But the port opening is larger than the face of the intake...So you have Matl welded to the manifold and then you can cut/port into it and still have it seal..
