well, for an aftermarket intake mani, you would need a new mani gasket, some new vacuum line, new mani (of course), and time to swap all your sensors over. new throttle body gasket too. the bolts on a b series intake mani are a real headache to get to if the motor is still in the car. maybe a single cam is easier to reach. did i miss anything?

It sounds like he already has an intake and wants to change out the manifold.

In that case, you need the following:
Replacement intake manifold. (Lol)

Everything on your current set-up should work just fine. It is not the easiest thing to do since it involves the fuel system (swapping rail to new IM), and the coolant system being drained as the IM has a port (z6 and y8 motors I am speaking of at least) for coolant, but by no means, it is no where the hardest thing to do.
