PI kenny bell on NPI motor...


I might be selling my KB to a friend here thats got a 98 NPI motor. I'm thinking it shouldn't be too hard kinda like putting a PI intake on an NPI motor?

it will work. he will just have to purchase p.i. to n.p.i. adapter plates that let you mount p.i. parts to n.p.i. parts. he can also do the p.i. headswap but it will cost more money.

Why couldn't he just use silicon guys? Thats what I would try first.

Yes he could but make sure he gets the PI gaskets. And, hope it seal up tight! Worse feeling in the world is boosting pressure into the coolant system! Big boom them it seems like the world is going to end and fluid is every where.

I don't think I'd trust just silicon on boosted air flow.

I have the silicon on mine for a while. My npi intake manifold cracked so I had to put the PI intake manifold on it for a while before i was ready to do the full PI swap. I ran the hell out of my car and it worked great!
