I got them from Livernois Motorsports (Detroit Speedworks). They don't have them advertised on their website, only the entire kit. You need to send them an e-mail with the purchase info. You can call and talk to Rick LeBlanc. He's the only guy who is cool, the rest were jerks. I paid $316 shipped, I know it's a bit pricey but worth every penny to me.bdcardinal said:where did you get them, and for how much. looks pretty cool
coramprat said:I read about them in 5.0 Magazine. I guess 316 bucks is better than a head swap. According to the dyno test the non-PI's out performed the PI's with the PI intake. The article says they did a P&P on the NPI's and then put on the intake. Maybe these NPI heads are not so bad after all. When I do the intake swap I will definaly get the adapters. I just don't want to have any issues later down the road.
i agree this is the way to if you want to supercharge but if you are staying n/a i think pi heads are the way to go. after you get you heads p&ped, get pi intake , adapter plates youll end up spending more money than a pi headswap. most headswapped cars dyno over 250rwhp with little mods and your not gonna get that high with npi's unless you have them p&ped.coramprat said:I read about them in 5.0 Magazine.

I doubt I do the P&P anyway. I have 105K on my car now so I don't think the heads are worth fooling with. But I would consider the plates and intake especially if the plates come down a little. I'd jump at $250 in an instant (I almost said "in a heartbeat" but we all know the heartbeat has stoppedslvrbullIT said:i agree this is the way to if you want to supercharge but if you are staying n/a i think pi heads are the way to go. after you get you heads p&ped, get pi intake , adapter plates youll end up spending more money than a pi headswap. most headswapped cars dyno over 250rwhp with little mods and your not gonna get that high with npi's unless you have them p&ped.
Right...I meant to mention that. I believe the kit comes with the intake ground already. If I remember right the article stated there was a problem with it even fitting under the stock hood.stimmler said:So my big question is are you going to be able to fit that under the hood. In the article Livernois makes a big deal about cutting down the intake for clearance. I have a 98 gt and dont have a strut tower brace, seems to me that that may be the only problem. I'll be eager to hear if you have any problems with your install. I was planning on doing the swap in a month but i just got done putting on a accufab tb and plenum and don't know if I will even notice the intake change now. Plus i would rather use the adaptor plates than worry about leaks and rtv. I also emailed them about just getting the plates and they haven't emailed back yet.
WHere did you get one made?RysRed96GT said:i'll tell you the simplest answer to gaurantee no leaks. have a custom gasket made with the port seals of the PI gasket with the coolant passage holes of the npi gaskets.
no such thing unfortunatlycoramprat said:Right...I meant to mention that. I believe the kit comes with the intake ground already. If I remember right the article stated there was a problem with it even fitting under the stock hood.

....I don't remember but I'm pretty sure they are the same. Just put one on and make sure that the NPI port is face DOWN. You can also hold them up against the PI intake because they also only go one way on that. They will only go in one way. You'll notice that one side has the two holes (and one big one) I'm pretty sure that on the driver side the three holes are at the front. I wish I had taken pictures of the install. The install is a breeze man, just start doing it and they will slide in. Let me know if you need more help (not that I gave you much here).joestang98 said:Blev, Is there a left and a right to your plates or are they IDENTICAL. Can one side be used for the other side? I have turned these things every wich way and I can get one side to line up????
