I don't think the throttle body openning is on the correct side (it will be into the firewall). But if it is (the side with the pulleys) maybe you should try it out. Unless it will turn around and the fasteners line up. Let us know.Your sig is the most important part of your message.

You would have to turn the intake around. Which could be done if you remove the locating pins.
But the plastic upper intake doesn't match our aluminum bottom intake. (the ports are different size/shape - rectangular vs. teardrop)
You could put a matching lower intake on too, but then you'd have nowhere to put the fuel injectors, since ours are in the aluminum intake (vs. in the heads).
You could swap on a set of L67 heads with fuel injector bosses in the heads, but that's a lot of work, swapping heads and both intakes.
Plus there are some coolant plumbing differences, especially if you flip the intake around so the tb is in the front of the motor...
Some thin delrin spacers for the intake halves would probably be as effective, and a whole lot easier.\'98 A4 Camaro v6->v8 conversion, and STS kit next<br />v6: 13.6 Powerdyne, 13.2 150 shot, 13.8 120 shot, 14.3 85 shot, 15.7 stock<br />v8(na): 12.18@113, 392rwhp<br />Moderator on <a href=\"http://www.mtfba.org\" target=\"_blank\">www.mtfba.org</a> and <a href=\"http://www.frrax.com\" target=\"_blank\">www.frrax.com</a> (Road Race & Autocross)<br /><a href=\"http://community.webshots.com/user/johnduncan10\" target=\"_blank\">Car pics</a>, <a href=\"http://www.trscca.com\" target=\"_blank\">TN Region SCCA</a>
