maybe2fast Posted August 27, 2004 Report Posted August 27, 2004 will this intake bolt to my 3.1 MPFI, and will it be any better? what about throttle and cruise cables and detant cable Do I need the lower intake to or can I use my 3.1 MPFI lower? Quote
midnight rider Posted August 27, 2004 Report Posted August 27, 2004 It should bolt up. I don't know about getting the linkages and sensors working though. The power you gain wouldn't be worth the money you'll spend. Quote
slick Posted August 27, 2004 Report Posted August 27, 2004 It will bolt up. You will most likely have problems of it fitting length wise so that the TB doesn't smack anything. Might have a bit of a gain, not sure though. Quote
skalor Posted August 27, 2004 Report Posted August 27, 2004 Are you sure it's going to bolt up as the 3.4 used in F-bodies have iron heads, and we have aluminum heads. I know Curtis Walker has the intake on his turbo Cavalier, but I think he's running iron heads. Quote

patgizz Posted August 27, 2004 Report Posted August 27, 2004 it will not bolt up, nor would it be remotely close to doing so. iron head intake = bolts to iron heads. Quote
89oldscutlass Posted August 28, 2004 Report Posted August 28, 2004 It wont bolt up. We have a 3.4 intake like that at the garage and I done checked it out and it wont work. I seen on someones web site that they had took and cut and welded one to make one fit a 3.1. I think it was on a Berretta. Quote
maybe2fast Posted August 28, 2004 Author Report Posted August 28, 2004 I was just thinking and I thought I would get you guys involved Quote
