good deal for a ported intake?
http://www.ksl.com/index.php?nid=218...347&cat=&lpid=
Anyone think this is a bad deal? the guy isn't sure on the cfm rating of the intake, but I am more interested in the service port fuel line because mine broke off. I was thinking i would just tig it back but then i found this add and thought for the fuel set up and manifold i didn't think it was to bad, especially after gm told me it was 425 bucks just for the line with the service port.
Any input would be great. thanks.

I would probably just tig yours back on. You're not going to get any performance increase on a 350, you really need to be running a 383 to start to outflow the LT1 intake (or some really high RPM...but you get what I'm saying). I personally wouldn't pick up the new intake if you have the ability to fix the one you've got.

yeah i know. I was more interested in having a an extra set of fuel rails and everything. I just tigged mine back on and no leaks so far, but why i was there i did a little painting ill have to post some pics of it when i get back home

A ported intake with unported heads will not help performance. The difference in runner size can disrupt flow and actually cause a loss of power. You can usually get away going from small to large, but large to small is a no-no.

yeah i knew the ported intake would be worthless without any supporting mods. I was doubtful it would give me much of anything even with heads and a cam. I was just mare curious if anyone thought that was a bad deal. thanks for the input though. I like how quick everyone replies here and how much information everyone has. its my favorite forum site by far.
