Does the intake just need to be opened up? Or is it the bolt pattern. I was thinking they were all the same but then again I haven't done more than just a few blower builds. I don't know why weiand would be any different than any other in regards to bolt pattern.
That link you posted disnt didn't work for me but I just went to Hardins site and found the chiller your refeering to and ya saw where it said won't fit weiand intake.

There...I think that one works lol
Yea not sure what the deal is..I looked on teagues site and it says the same thing about a superchiller?? It can't be the bolt pattern I wouldn't think or else the blower wouldn't fit right?? Idk I'm stumped as to what it can be??
May have to give a call to Teague and see what they say just thought maybe someone had some info if it can be done or not...don't really want to buy another intake lol

Sorry not a lot of help but I just looked up different blower intakes and is it possible the intake opening on the weiand protrudes out a tad further than the bolt holes in the front? Just a guess. If somebody doesn't get you an answer make a quick call. To Hardin or cp

No problem..I actually just called Teague...didn't realize theirs said it as well as I hadn't looked till now lol....reason it doesn't fit is because the weiand intake is set back towards the dist. and nobody else's intake does this...the intercooler tank hits the dist. so I guess if you are running coil near plug or something of that effect that eliminates the dist or runs a flat cap you could get away with it maybe....guess I'm in the market for an intake too!! hahaha

Just an update for everyone...I talked to the blower shop and their "new style" intercoolers WILL fit the weiand intake...they made a half moon provision on the rear tank to accommodate the dist. on this intake...they also WILL sell you just the rear tank to convert and "old style flatback version" to a new style
