Which gasket did you use Bo?

If you are referring to ICT Billet's intake spacers, I just used a set of these and they measured out at 3/8", just FYI.

Nicely done sir!!!

I used the FelPro gasket I think.

Bo White · 12-07-2021, 02:24 PM

I've seen 2 good dyno tests of this manifold comparing it to the Holley. It's neck and neck with it but the key I want to bring up is the opening was left at 90mm.

I ordered the holley 508-24 gasket, which is 105mm just in case. Same bolt pattern. hopefully it fits.

I was hoping my current Jegs fuel rails would work. Did you re-use the stock intake manifold bolts or buy the recommended bolts?

I'm about to tear apart the car and would like to have everything on hand. I'll probably have to redo the fuel lines though.

Bo White · 12-08-2021, 07:38 AM

I bought some from a local fastener store.

eLeSthree · 12-10-2021, 10:42 AM

For anyone thinking about buying this intake, make sure you get the recommended fuel rails, TB gasket, and bolts to fasten to the head. The price of the intake looks good, but it doesn't include this stuff.

PN# 8515 for the manifold to head bolts/washers $23 or buy them locally. (stock wont work)

PN# 3648 for the fuel rails. $200. My aftermarket JEGs fuel rails wont work, so its probably safe to assume any rails that fit the LS3 manifold wont work on the Pro Flo. The bolt holes are way off.

Plus whatever size gasket you want to match your TB.

My luck, the rails wont ship until Jan 7. The hood closes though!

eLeSthree · 12-10-2021, 10:45 AM

Plenty of hood clearance for 2010-2013 hoods. Not sure about the vented hoods.

1JEWLDSSRS · 12-10-2021, 04:14 PM

Very nice info sir, and looks cool too..

eLeSthree · 12-13-2021, 04:11 PM

Bo, how the hell did you get this fitting into the intake?

I assume its a press fit, but I've put it in the freezer, sanded it down, and tapped it in with a plastic hammer. It just wont go. Wondering if my intake wasnt machined right.

HOJO · 12-13-2021, 06:07 PM

It’s me or the pictures but what fitting are you referring to? I’m not making it out. Sorry, readers are helping either. Lol

eLeSthree · 12-13-2021, 07:29 PM

The silver 90 vaccum fitting dead center of picture.

Bo White · 12-13-2021, 11:31 PM

Edit. I remember putting it in. I cut a deep well socket to contour around the 90 turn and got up against the shoulder and hammered it in.
