2.3 HO manifold + 56mm throttle body

what car (year/make/and model) does this 2.3 HO intake manifold come from.

[nhartwell]

oldsman or 2fst? where did u get urs?

[ptrudel]

you want it from a 2.3l Quad4 HO

Grand Am GT had it for sure, beretta GTZ i believe
i'm not sure if any other "higher end" models had that engine as well

[2fst4u]

i got mine off of ebay. along with the 56 mm throttle body.
i'm actually looking to sell mine when i get home. let me know, it's drilled and ready to bolt on. no modification needed for the parts.

[Mr_White]

Hey Greg If he don't wont I'll take it

[2fst4u]

it's not going to be until april when i can pull it off. in the mean time, what is a decent price for the two parts?

[DaRockwilder]

Thats the intake you'd need, but you want the HO one. Look for Beretta GTZ's and Grand am GT's with the Quad-4. most the the time the IDI cover is removed, but if its not, it'll have "HIGH OUTPUT" stamped into it. Theres a part number stamped into them for the different manifolds, but I don't remember what the part number is for the HO manifold. Its on the back side of it so you have to remove it in order to see it.

here's a pic of mine installed. i'll include the intake piping too.

i got mine off ebay. what you want is from a calias 442, achieve SCX, GA GT, beretta GTZ that have the 2.3 HO under the hood.

here is few of the part #'s for the HO manifold 22538691, 24570288, 24571319

the HO motor is labeled an LGO

Isn't there only one style of manifold that looks like that (1989-1995), HO or not? Unlike the original (1987-1988) header-looking manifold.

*edit* just found that the HO manifolds have a larger plenum volume versus the standard-output engines.

This may be of some help, in there, there is info on what the HO manifold came on.

[2.4ALERO99]

how much you lookin to get for the 2.3 and 56mmTB? i have a 2.4twincam

[2fst4u]

sorry, but the sale is pending to nhartwell right now.

[2.4ALERO99]

What kinda hp gain are you looking form a 2.3HO intake... and where the hell can i find one lol i can't find anything on EBAY

[MixtapeMessiah]

go to a junkyard, ur only lookin at a couple hp maybe, its better than the 2.4 plastic manifold btw

[spyhunter]

You wont' be able to take much advantage of the 2.3HO manifold if you just stick it by itself. It only starts to shine after true supporting mods, like a header, exhaust, secret cams, headwork w/ oversized valves, that will be able to utilize the airflow.
