You can use an older intake or a newer intake. All you have to do is realign the two center bolt holes. This will work I have already done it. The newer intake can be used on the older truck with out switch the heads. All you have to do is make sure all the ports match. i start out first of all that a 1978 intake and a 1993 intake will not interchange but the heads with the intake will and the transmission on the 1993 will bolt up fine and the moto mounts will ok too if you don't want change the heads then i would call summit racing up and i do so belie the can get you a intake that will accept the 1993 fuel injection system which i would do if i was you i would not elminate the computer system due to the fact that your transmission(if auto) relies on it unless you want to by a piece from summit to control it well good luck on it
