Holly Contender Intake Manifold

Hey guys I'm cleaning out some stuff. I'm probably going to have more but first up I have a Holly Contender Aluminum 4brl intake manifold I want to get rid of. It's very comparable to a Eledbrock performer. It's in great shape and I can get some pics for anyone that wants them. It fits any SBC. It came of a pretty hot 327. Everything I own is now powered by the LT1 so I have no need for it. $75 or best offer.

Are you sure you are on the right forum ModernMuscleHead?
We are all LT-1 powered here too or hope to be someday.

I figure there has to be someone out there with a pre LT1 wagon that could use this for sure. My current Wagon and the one I pick up on Tuesday are both LT1 powered and so is my 95 Trans Am convertible. No need for carbs or carb intakes

WHat did you have to pay for a 40000 wagon if you dont mind and what kind of puppies do you
have.I have 2 american eskimo girls from the same litter.

Oh mine has a lot more then 40,000. You must have read my post about picking up another wagon. What I meant is this second wagon I'm picking up is in much nicer condition then the 94 I have even though it has 40,000 more miles then my 94. My 94 has 115,000 on it the 95 I'm buying has 155,000 miles on it. I'd love to find a 40,000 mile one in great condition. My puppies are mixed breed. We rescued them. About 5 weeks ago we had a Blizzard here in Michigan. 14 inches of snow and temps in the 20's. During that blizzard some heartless *&(&*#_* put 7 puppies into a garbage bag and left them next to a dumpster for dead. Luckily a guy plowing the lot saw the bag moving and took them home. He took them to an animal hospital the next day and they nursed them. They figured they were maybe 2 weeks old. They are Lab and Boxer mix with maybe a little German Sheppard in them. The two I adopted look different even though they are brother and sister. My male puppy ( Lucky ) looks about 95% Lab. You really don't see much else in him. While the female ( Grace ) looks about 60% Boxer, and 40% Lab. Cute pups.

Does your intake have the EGR mount? or is it a non EGR intake?

There are some truly worthless Bastards in this world.If that word offends I am sorry but it does
describe those who treat animals like trash.They could have taken them to a rescue or the
SPCA but are either too lazy,ignorant or both.When we decided to get another Eskimo I checked
SPCAs and rescues all over the state but no luck.These 2 helped make the last 2 years of my
mothers life full of laughter and love.I have a 95 RMW and a cherry 1 owner OCC with 70000
original miles.In this group owning 2 wagons is called a good beginning but nothing to brag about.
As you will learn having more than 2 is common and you are considered off to a good start.
Of course having all LT-1 powered vehicles is a plus too.

I'll have to look at it to make sure. I think it has the EGR with a bolt in block off plate if you don't want to run EGR. I can check tomorrow morning and let you know for sure. But I'm about 95% sure it has EGR port with block off plate.

I don't know if I ever see myself owning more than 2 or 3 wagons. I'm a F-body guy buy nature, but after a couple of back surgeries they get harder and harder to get into all the time. I've owned 6 F bodies in the past. A 1986 Firebird SE a 1988 Firebird Formula L98 350 tuned port car, another 1988 Firebird Formula 350 Tuned Port Car, a 1995 Camaro Z/28 that I bought new and still miss, my current 1995 Trans Am convertible and a 1997 Trans Am T-top car that I sold about a year and a half ago. I like the size of the Wagons and the LT1's are great engines ( if you take away the Opti Spark ) but that being said I'm cutting back on my fleet. Insurance and gas is getting expensive so I'll keep 3 cars instead of 5. Those 3 are going to Be my Trans Am and two wagons.

If you can take a picture that would help. I should be in your area this comming week end

I'll get a picture on here tomorrow, or a few of them.

It does have EGR provisions. It has a block off plate on there just like I thought. From my research these intakes are modeled after the 1st gen LT1's of 1970. They perform very well. I had it on a .040 over 327 in a 1978 Malibu up until last year. If anyone has any more questions contact me.

you may have seen my 79 malibu on the bricks last summer

I think I did. I had a 78 Malibu up until early last summer. I'll put up some pics of my old one soon.

I'll be riding over with Pat to pick up the intake - and then we're gonna give stick it in my new blasting cabinet to make it look brand new!

See you Saturday!
