Wow I havn't gotten any questions or bids. Do you guys think I'm asking too much for this? I thought $500 would be a screemen deal.

Seems like a great price, most vette owners wouldn't want to switch from MAF to Speed Density. If you don't sell, I might be interested in the Fuel Rails & Injectors and maybe some other parts.

Most anyone that would be putting that on a Vette have most of those pieces.
With the exception of the intake manifold and runners all the rest of the stuff is there already.

Not knocking your auction, just making an observation.

I know...But I figured that you can't even buy the Edelbrock intake and runners for $500 new let alone with 30lb injectors and a ported plenum. I just figured I would post it on here to see if anyone wanted it.

What kind of hp gain would you might expect on a stock '86 motor???

Phobos84

good question. Edelbrock says 20 over stock with just the base manafold and runners. Maybe a few more with the ported plenum and bigger injectors. The big advantage is 500 more RPM of breathing.

I might be interested. I assume that this would be almost plug and play on my 90 since I have speed density already? Also, what is the black stuff on the plenum? Would it be possible to turn it back silver or at least strip it off? What else would I need to buy?

Phobos84

It's just some greese that I got on it. A quick shot of brake cleaner will make it look like new again. This should be a "plug and play" install for you. You could have it done in about 2 hours.

What I meant to say was, why is the plenum black? Is that a powdercoat or what? I'm not worried about the intake manifold. I'd like to polish it all before I put it on. Also, I asume that that is a stock throttle body? Thanks.

ohhh....sory I missunderstood. The plenum is painted with high temp paint. I can remove it before hand if you would want me to.

Phobos84

well the auction ends tomorow. Any last questions?

Where is the fuel inlet tube? I see the return line from the pressure regulator but I don't see the inlet tube.......

Phobos84

I didn't use the normal one. I just used rubber tube and hose clamps. I put this on an 84 that had Crossfire so my fuel line fittings are different.
