JW Lower Intake, bought for a TII Motor. JW swears up and down that I have the right part.



But, the bolt holes don't line up.



Now, I'm trying to figure out which motor I have.



Can you help? I need to get this guy an answer today so he can hopefully ship out the right one.



Here is the intake,

Here is my block, see if you can figure out what's wrong ?

I've looked at pictures of the TII block and 13Brew block, the intake looks like it's for a 13brew. But, I'm just not sure.



Here are some more pictures with reference points and measurements. Maybe someone has a block they can measure for me????????? 8)

I don't have one, I accidently gave it away https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub..._DIR#>/sad.gif:(

that manifold really looks like an fd one... if it doesnt bolt up, then its not the 84-91 style, and its not the 74-83 style either

JW Swears that I have the Turbo II model. He's going to fax me a copy of the "FD Intake" so I can see what that looks like. I think they might have the FD and TII intakes labeled wrong.

He faxed me copies of both intakes, Part # 97000 and Part # 97002.



Check out their listings

Here, they're basically the same.

I'm having him fax me a copy of the Turbo II 6 Port. Part # 97001

Got it figured out, they found the right one. They had a casting/labeling problem so they were marked wrong. What a headache !

It's always nice to find out someone else made a mistake, and you're not actually going insane.
