Wanted: Spread Bore Vortec Intake

[907 Chevy]

Lemme know if one of you guys has an intake laying around you'd like to get rid of. I need a dual plane spread bore to replace my single plane...

What kind of intake do you have now ? I might have a squarebore vortec intake I'd consider trading.

I'm running a no name square bore single plane. It's a good intake, but the engine is a cold blooded SOB with that intake in the winter.

Edit: this is the one I'm running at the moment...

That's the kind of single plane I figured it was as I have yet to find a less aggressive single plane for the vortec heads like a edelbrock torker II or a weiand excelerator. My only question is does that intake offer any usable torque in the lower rpm range ? I see you're running an LT4 hot cam so I know your engine will still be pretty snappy with an intake like that. I'm not so sure about a stock cammed vortec though. Anyhow, I've got an edelbrock performer rpm on my car right now that I would consider trading. It's not an air gap so it actually has a coolant passage cast under the plenum area that can be plumbed externally. I was actually going to go ahead and plumb coolant through it because I am having the same cold weather issues as you. I'm mainly interested in a single plane because I could install the bungs and convert it over to a multi point setup for way cheaper than any aftermarket multi port intake. If you're interested in trading let me know. My only concern at the moment would be the height of the intake because with the performer rpm and tbi adapter I'm already hitting the hood with the air cleaner. I really need to do something about the hood anyway though so that isn't necessarily a deal breaker. Just let me know if you're interested or not. The p/n for the intake is an edelbrock 7116 if you wanna look it up.

The engine seemed to have a lot of low end grunt, but then again, I'm comparing it to the old tbi engine it replaced lol. That's a nice intake you have, but unfortunately I need one with a spreadbore mounting flange, not square bore. I'm installing a big block throttle body with the stock spread bore adapter underneath it...

Not to butt in, but I wouldnt let a tbi adapter plate turn off a good deal. Holley makes a adapter plate for the 454 tbi to a square bore intake for only $50. I ran one on my engine untill I swapped to mpfi. If I remember correctly, the part number is 17-45. Might want to double check.
