I recently upgraded to a racing intake, so I have no use for the Trueleo intake. It was custom made to fit a Buick GN throttle body. I made a custom throttle cable bracket, so the stock V6 throttle cable could work with the Buick throttle body. I also had to make a new intake hose, and modify the air cleaner canister to make everything work together. And I modified the base of the air cleaner canister, to increase its airflow capacity. Plus I had a custom vacuum distribution block made for the throttle body, to eliminate the need for vacuum ports sticking out the side of the intake manifold.

This Trueleo intake doesn't have any provision for EGR. And the throttle body doesn't have ported vacuum (only manifold vacuum). Just FYI.

I cleaned up all the parts and repainted them. The throttle body is painted with silver engine block paint. Everything else is painted with black POR-15. The finish is not what I would consider "show car pretty". So if you plan on using this on a show car, you may need to put some more work into the appearance.

I'm also including some extras, to save you the trouble of tracking down the parts yourself. Included is a new Fel-Pro manifold gasket, new air filter canister gaskets from Rodney Dickman, a new Fram air filter, a new IAC valve, and a used but good TPS. The throttle body gasket is already installed. The only thing missing is the MAT sensor.

Here are some photos:















Asking price is $550 shipped to anywhere in the USA. No international shipping. I prefer Paypal or money order for payment. If you're interested, please send me an email.

Happy Memorial Day weekend!

Great deal for a handmade piece. It's certainly far better flowing than the stock manifold but how much it will boost power may be a key point.

The fastback was never an issue. Part way through production, Trueleo modified the plenum so it wouldn't touch the underside of the notchie lid. (Interference was minimal, anyway.)
This one has that modification. The flat spot on the top, at the opposite end from the throttle body.

Short answer. Yes it will fit fine.

This is the short runner. Better for top end. This is what most people ordered. So much so, that they stopped producing the long runner version.

Just my opinion here but if you're using a stock lower intake. You should connect the cold air port, by the cold air injector, to the intake neck just past the TB. 2-5 % more flow. That's what I would do if I still had mine. Hope this helps.

I haven't received any emails from that address, and there are none in my spam folder. There are 2 people ahead of you, but if they back out I'll let you know.
