Default Edlerock pro flow intake swap ???

Soo I have been looking at differnet intakes to run for my swap. Plans are v6 to H/C/I? 4.8 turbo swap. Cam is speed-inc TU1 Heads are worked dart 205s. So my big issue is what intake to run I really like the edlebrock pro flow but cant seem to find out all the little details anywhere. Mainly I have read about injector issues something along the lines of ls1 style injectors are needed and new pig tails for them. Next big thing is does it have provissions for my brake booster? And all the other things like MAP sensor. If anybody is running this intake please put some pics up and help me with my parts list. Thanks

Make sure u get the pro flo matching fuel rails they come with the brackets to mount them. The intake has a bunch of ports for vacuum lines and the brake booster port is in the back of the intake. Yes not all injectors fit but I don't know exactly which ones they are.

So as long as i get the correct fuel rails and injectors it should be a simple swap? So far im looking at ls2 throttle body dr x-link edlebrock fuel rails and injectors. Cool Does anybody have some pics with it installed ? P.S. I have been reading your build 03regcab sierra looks good. I noticed you ditched your evap crap. How is my question?

I don't have pics of it completed yet just of the intake set on the heads. As for evap I went with custom fuel system so I gutted everything that had to do with stock fuel lines and evap. Not too hard of a job. Just a tip don't get the ls2 throttle body. Either ls3 or ls7. There are some issues with the ls2 having to snip a wire for the x link to work .

I just have to add from my experience installing mine last weekend that you have to have e-fans. I don't know anything about your setup, so as long as you have the e-fans it should work out for you. Was installing the new engine and had the intake all installed and ready, put the fan shroud on, and no room for intake. As far as injectors go, I just got the edelbrock pico injectors, fit just fine.

Like said before brake booster connection is at the back of the manifold via npt threaded hole. My 3 Barr MAP is attached by a barbed fitting with spacers to the pass side port of the intake. Plenty of ports for fuel regulators, boost controllers, etc etc. I use Bosch 80lb injectors, so I'm not sure what will or won't work. You have to use the Edelbrock rails because of the angle of the injector.

I know my 65# fast injectors don't work. They have to have the extended injector tip.

Is a fuel pressure regulator needed? Since the fuel regulator is in the tank?
