Ok. Ok. So I know I'm going to get a lot of flack on this one, but here it goes:
So on a recent trip to the junkyard I cam across a badly mangled thrasher cold air intake with ram air hood. Upon further inspection, the hood was toast, but the cold air intake was just broken at the bottom where the side wall meets the bottom piece. I spent a few hours cleaning it up and re-gluing it with epoxy to look like this:
Went to put it in and noticed this.....
I'm devastated!
So I 100% plan on finding some way to make this work, and I've been planning on going with an LS or northstar throttle body and maf sensor eventually, so my questions are:
1. Will the 4 bolt LS throttle bodies line up with the L26 intake bolts?
2. Is a LS1 Maf even tunable for a n/a basically stock engine? Would it go that low?
3. Is there any other options other than of course cutting the hole out or going back to L36 mainfold
Any thoughts are appreciated!
