I'm about to swap a Y8, and the motor doesn't currenty have IM/fuel rail/injectors, so I figure why not go aftermarket. I've been looking into the Edelbrock IM, but haven't ruled out an OE Y8 IM. I don't know what injector/fuel rail combo to go with, suggestions???

 

give us some more details of ur setup

 

NA? Stock fuel rail and stock 240cc injectors will be fine. Boost? No idea then.

 

The motor has DC 4-2-1 header, AEM cam gear, MSD disty, Fidanza flywheel, and Exedy organic clutch. Looks like I'll just pick up a stock fuel set-up...

 

stock should be fine, you don't have alot of major upgrades to go with bigger injectors

 

yeah stock fuel rail and injectors should do fine.

You could go with the aftermarket IM if you wanted, i have heard good things about the Skunk 2 IM on NA cars, if you are planing on later going turbo i would get the Edelbrock though .

good luck dude

 

Is there any difference between the auto and 5spd intake manifolds???

 

yes and no the manual has the idle air control valve on the back and the automatic just has a machined place for it to go. The IACV is up under the throttle body on the automatics. there could be different placement of a vacume line or something but i can't remember?

thats about the only and biggest difference i can think of

Manual = 2 wire IACV.

Automatic = 3 wire IACV.

 

So do I need to have anything done to the manifold?

Also, is there any difference between Z6 and Y8 fuel injectors? Fuel rails?
