  • Need pics! 3800 Differences???

    I'm looking to buy an upper and lower intake manifold for a project vehicle from a 3800. Before I buy one, I need some good, detailed pics of the upper intake from a 95-98, and 99-03. I need to know what the differences are between them. TIA, David.

    simply put... angled TB to straight TB... thats basically the only difference. i can get you some detailed pics of basically anything you want... i have 2 3800's waiting to be built right now... so let me know if you need pics.

      The 95-98 has a throttle body that uses a cable linkage set-up. I believe the 99-03 uses a drive-by wire, no cable linkage, which requires the use of sensors. I don't think you will be able to mount the cable linkage throttle body on the 99-03 intake manifolds. Not without modifications anyway. Also, like rdrr96 mentioned for the 95-98 intakes where the throttle body mounts to, it is angled downward, where as the 99-03 is straight out. Send me an email address and I can send you pictures of both intakes. My email address is: Chevyone@hawaii.rr.com

          you can't because nobody makes any, only stock ones that have been ported.

                        Sweet. Thanks Robert. Any signifigance in flow, or inlet/outlet size between the two? Anyone better than the other? Differences in TB are not a factor, I will be using a diff style for that.Thanks again guys.
