Rambo_Nate Posted April 19, 2018 Report Share Posted April 19, 2018 Hello guys, I have a P51 intake manifold and livernois adapter plates. I originally wanted to go with a PI intake manifold because I wanted to do an upgrade on my 96 GT, my question is has anyone ever done this before? I also have a Saleen style hood so if anyone is wondering...it should, in theory, be able to clear. I tried researching on the net if anyone has done this but my results were futile. My current setup for bolt-on power is steeda pulleys, K&N fipk cai, mac 75mm t/b, c&l plenum. Nathan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators LWARRIOR1016 Posted April 19, 2018 Moderators Report Share Posted April 19, 2018 Why are you wanting to use the adapter plates, Nate? A pi gasket with some rtv around the coolant port is all that’s needed for the pi intake swap. I daily drove mine like that 150 mile round trip to work for a couple years with no problems. I can can honestly say though, I haven’t yet seen anyone put a P51 on npi heads. It bolts and seals up just like a pi intake though so it shouldn’t be any different than a pi intake swap.

These metal intakes are good for 20hp/15tq so why not right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
