So my buddy emailed me this picture of a Intake Manifold, and was wondering... is there one made like this for the 3800 series engine... it would for sure look bada$$ under the hood of my N-A GT.:th_king-evil:

Anybody have any information on afermarket Manifolds?? if so, help appreciated, thanks guys
 


the 3800 fbody manifolds look similar to that, but the throttle body is on the opposite side. The holden intakes also look like that the the TB is on the front.

I'm just lookin for a lil' something diffrent, i plan on snaggin another 3800 wth low km's and building it in my shop, built for boost, might save my cash and sink more into the engine... sleepahhhh

now imagine it turned clockwise 90*. better stay on the lookout for those because they are pretty rare.
 


Wow man!...That thing also has "leaves all over the cowl induction". With that and the Holden intake, it's gotta be fast. LOL
 
With 3.29's 1" chain, XP cam and that turbo.. oh...it broke them free from 80mph with about 60% throttle from what the owener told me about his ride home.
 
The leaves were cleaned off after the remainder of the work was done. OP had it parked for a while before the trans was swapped and cam was installed.
 


Glanzer has one for sale right now.

If you want to go fast n/a you need good heads.

Zzp al heads would be ideal.

They can be ported for a higher intake ceiling which would require a custom intake manifold, but improve flow.
 
Well i was lookin for a lil' something diffrent

me and my dad have plans for a 3800 we may be gettin for 800$ with 160,000km's on it (be sure to watch for a build thread) BOOST HERE I COME!!
 
Then Engine in mine is a L36 and the one i'm getting is the exact same (from n 01 GT)

any my g-p only has 152,000km's on it?? is that bad?? it's hard to find a g-p around my area with under 250,000km's
 
Standard auto wreckers has at least 10 L26's with 100K or less for $450 a piece.

Looking at a map, your location makes getting an engine from standard difficult.
 


there's a scrap yard 10min from my place, and there's another g-p there (rear end accident) and the guy at the shop is friends with my old man, so i might be able to get engine trans everything i need for a reasonable price
 
I'm a fan of everything on that Regal but the N/A dog bone mount...because with that kind of power, I'd expect instant snapage.
