I am looking for a european intak manifold for my 2.8 block. I don't want to pay no more than $1200 for one! Please let me know if any connections or you have one! Thank you

Are you talking about the 6 TB one?

It wont fit on your motor. US and Euro motors are completely different.

Well, thats a custom piece. Its not the actual OBD2 euro intake manifold/individual TB setup.
Someone actually bought one a while back and found almost no gains.
You should look into an OBD1 M50/S50 intake manifold swap. Cheap and proven top end HP gains.

I don't know if they still sell it, or at what price, but they were in the business of selling multiple throttle-body set ups for US based heads.
You can absolutely make more power with this kind of a set up, BUT, you'll need custom programming to MAXIMIZE your gains. I know of a club racer who successfully used a BMP-like set up on an M20 if you would like to talk to them, I do believe they bought it from an alternative source. That same source might make a version for the later blocks as well. I don't want to put that route on a public board. If you like, contact me privately. xyobgyn@aol.com
Either way, you will have problems making the head of a US motor breath as well as..............
Alternatively, I have several Euro 3.0 liter engines available, and they bolt right in, they are rock solid, and come with the TB assembly for sure!
(This was an honest effort to help with the TB question, not to pitch a sale)

Well I don't really want to mess with that programming! Maybe I will do what spencer said and find a S50-S52 manifold! Find that for me guys! :D
Thanks
