Youre confused... Im saying Im sure yours was easier to work with... Try making a custom intake for a 4th gen by squeezing 3" piping through a 1-2" space.

My Radiator cover had to be removed to install my pvc pipe in...thats how tight of a squeeze it is...and the bolt holding the radiator cover on closest to the intake isnt all the way in to where it should be bc of it being so tight...

ya the 3.4 intake looks like it would work better than a 3.8 anyway... it gets even tighter on a 3.8
