Im doing the PI complete engine swap (literally right now, i have grease allover my hands haha) and Im lookin at my new motor....the intake manifold is the completely plastic model without the metal crossover pipe. On my non PI motor (the one in the car) I replaced the cracked manifold with one from the dealer which had the metal crossover tube a few years back. Should I use my old manifold that has the metal crossover tube, or is it not PI,....how can I tell???....I dont want to lose any power:shrug:
 
thanks sanman! i just wanted to make sure that the replacement i bought for my 98 back in 03 was a PI. It wouldnt have made sense for them to keep producing non PI intakes all the way through 03. Thanks for the info!
 
I beleive these is a gasket difference.

Most likely you have the NPI version.

Just use the plastic PI version, keep the aluminum NPI intake and sell it, then pick up an aluminum crossover PI intake later on
