Default Ported tbss intake,tbss converter

This is a ported factory tbss intake manifold.All the work was done by me.
I cut the top off and cleaned out the phenom(sp?) plastic welded it back together and used jb weld to seal it and make sure there are no vacuum leaks.
I noticed better thottle response and it pulled better up top(6k+) than when it was stock.It is ugly but it works very well.
This is for the intake only as I robbed a part off the rails.



I am asking 130.00 shipped to the lower 48.

Factory tbss torque converter,2200 rpm stall, has 900 miles on it.
SOLD!!


Thanks,Jake

I will see if the camera can take a better pic than my phone of the inside.
I did not port the runners as they are already as big as the ports on the heads and I am selling it because I switched to a Edelbrock pro flo intake. The edelbrock didnt make that much more power than the ported tbss intake but it sure is more sexy

You can guarantee there is no air leaks right? So you just removed the center section of the manifold right like the ported LS2Protworks TBSS manifold? Thanks!

Yes sir,I blocked off the ports and filled it with water to check for leaks,I also closely watched my fuel trims for any signs of unmetered air.I put 3000 miles on it with no problems.Also yes, I did just remove the center section like the ls2portworks manifold. Looking at pictures of how Cory did his is what gave me the idea of how cut it apart and make it work.

No rails,I had to cut the fuel inlet off for something else.The rails themself are ok they just need a new crossover piece and if someone wants them I would just throw them in. The injectors could go to for an extra 50.00.
