is there such a thing as having 2 intake manifolds on a 3.4?

im not gonna mention names, so this person can avoid embarrassment lol.


this kid was talkin to me on aim about getting "intake manifolds" on his 3.4 v6 camaro

i proceeded to tell him intake manifold, singular

he said no its 2 piece, upper and lower

i said yes it might have 2 pieces but it is a single intake manifold, those parts make up the intake manifold, as a whole. (FAST has a 3 piece design if i remember but its a single intake)

i told him if he wants to see intake manifolds, look at a early 90s 300zx or mid 90s dodge intrepid, for they had intake manifolds and TBs for each bank

if im wrong, ill admit it but im pretty sure theres only a single intake manifold on a 3.4v6 lol

My buddy bought a 1994 3.4 firebird to put a 408 in it.
I have the motor here so I got bored and pulled the intake off the motor since it was sitting in my back building
Yep it is a 2 piece

Single manifold. Doesn't matter how many pieces make it up.
