That's LO.
There's shouldn't be any 'hump' on the one side giving a size diff running across the entire base. (if that makes sense)
And you can't go by the screw on the back either.
I was sent a pic of an LI with the screw that's in all the HOs.
But the mani was LO.
There are pics all over in other posts.
Try to get it exchanged money back or something.

Ive been chatting with Brent.
And Philio, Ill try to find the email.
But he sent me a pic of a potential HO, with the 'screw plug' in the back...
BUT...
It IS an LO manifold.
And is the second one i've seen that's like that.
So you can just go by the screw.
I don't doubt he pulled it from a GTZ.
I'm trying to get a mani from him as well and he's been straight up with me.
But yeah try to get that HO

Hey I wanted to clear all this up, it was really just an F up on my part, the way I check if it is low or high output is by the 8th digit in the vin being an A and it was, but the manifold was already like half off on this beretta and I checked for the A and just pulled it and didnt really think about it, I pull alot of these so I must have just been out of it or something, it was a screw up on my part and I apologize and I am going to hunt down another for Marc.
Ya... small mistake.. Well at least your fixing it.

let me know how it turns out......... I always come across HO manifolds, if he cant find another one and refunds you, I'm sure I can get one out to you.
I have one in my garage I need to shave the pads off of, and sand down..... to send to get powdercoated....... and get it on my engine.

another way to tell is when you look down on it like the first pic there should be only one vaccuum line to the left of temp sensor...i think...lol..i'd have to go look at mine but i'm pretty sure i'm right...
you cant really go by the VIN's any more
since the cars are getting old , alot of people will swap a any quad 4 motor into their car as , long as it runs , so your bound to end up with LO in a HO car
also the HO intakes came both ways with and with out the hole , it depended on the year
also alot of LO's came with HO heads and intakes from the factory
if the manifold is holding up fabrication work , you can put it on for the fab work , the tb sits in the same spot , that way you can get some work done while your waiting
on a turbo car i doubt youll notice a difference in performance between the LO and the HO
yea i figured that but i still would like to have the HO jus for calling preferences.. an the fact that an HO was the one advertised for sale.. an nah, the kit is complete an ready to bolt on with no fabbing or modding.. be on, next week

I've got an HO mani on they way from Brent. Hopefully I get the right one. We should get a definitive list of the physical differences between the two so people pulling these out of junk yards or people buying them can determine the difference.

My other car is an interceptor.

Yes and No,
All I've had have 3 across the top.
The one you describe is 2 across the top, one in the back.
Either way there are 3 total for both.
Not counting the oil vapor retun line thing in the back of them all.

Remember....syringes go in the RED waste basket.
there is a list some where , with the #'s and differences as well
and illd9 , i wasnt telling you to keep it , lol
just to use it for mock up purposes , but since you say the kit is already set up for it then
yeah id wait tell you got the HO
i was gunna say lol.. its all good, i dk i emailed this guy again, id rather just have a refund seein i have a mani an tb coming with my kit now also...
