www.customcougars.com has these for $609 + $18 shipping. I have found a potential supplier that would sell them for $509 + $18 shipping. That is a $100 savings. How many would be interested? I still have to work out the final terms, like quantity and the like. I would have to front $10,000 and they would get me 19 Upper Intake Manifolds. I ordered one for now, I want to measure the port opening with a caliper to make sure they are the real deal. These will be Brand New!

stupid question, but had to be asked, since the UIM is DH, will they have to match to the LIM, or does that matter? I'd love to get in on this since it would cost me nearly $1K to get 1 more pass on my 98CSVT UIM.
Is it a DH to UIM/LIM?

It depends on the size of your LIM. Here is a few measurements: DH UIM Primary: 30.5mm Secondary: 31.8mm Stock LIM DH LIM Inlet Primary: 33.5mm Secondary: 34.7mm Non-SVT LIM Primary: 31mm Secondary: 32mm
My conclusion: the LIM is big enough.

Where did you get your quote from? My UIM is at SHO Shop and getting another pass done, its only $299, granted its taking them forever and I have to call ever week, but no where close to this $1000 you talk about. Originally posted by ssmumich00: stupid question, but had to be asked, since the UIM is DH, will they have to match to the LIM, or does that matter?
