So I decided to start doing my own throttle bodies to 63MM, went to buy the plates for them, and while on hold I look at the clearance section of the manufacturer.....holy sht! LT-5 stuff

Picked up full intake: plenum and IHs...head with no cover. I guess GM dropped it off to them in 91, never picked it up

I think when you say "needs a cam cover".....that could be an issue.
I am thinking the cam covers are matched to the Heads (the Cam journal bearings bored at one time or some such making the set matched).

I don't have any pics - but one of these made a delivery to one of my co-workers house a couple weeks ago - and took the whole front end off his 2013 Optima when he left.... derrrrrr

Probably Kinsler fuel injection. I remember seeing the LT5 parts on their close out list years ago.

Good for Lee, though. Pick up deals wherever you can on this stuff.
