that manifold only has 6 round(ish) ports which are completely located in the wrong spot to even come close to bolting on to a Duratec.

Doesnt look like it. The UIM looks quite different from the ones we normally use. What car is that on anyway?

it's an 05 vulcan. it sure looks like a split port manifold to me, unless the new vulcans have some kind of really retarded LIM goin on....

no, its a round(ish) port. does the same thing as the 6G72 in my car.
Dont mind the circle parts.

Can an 04 uim bolt onto a svt lim?

Nope. Shape of mating openings differ.

IDK why you'd want to do that anyway, but you can use a 99 duratech 3.0 uim, although it's gains are only in the midrange and will hurt top end performance.
if you where to run a 99 3.0 uim, I'd also suggest a 3.83 FDR swap to make the more midrange oriented powerband more useful...
