whats the difference between intake and intake manifold? please help

 

Intake manifold is the silver thing that your throttle body connects to, and the intake coonnects to the throttle body.

You know what headers are? the header looking things on the other side of the engine...

 

GetawayInMoscow basically has it right. Those are the understood definitions when people talk about an "intake" or an "intake manifold."

An engine has an intake side and an exhaust side. Basically everything on the intake side can be called an intake, whether it's the manifold, the air intake tube, etc.

 

It can be confusing because an intake manifold is an "intake" to a lot of domestic guys...

 

Not my motor btw.
