What type of intake manifold? Obviously a intake manifold would fit an 87 300zx turbo as it (and every motor for that matter) has one stock.

Yes. The 1987 turbo has an intake manifold. So any other Z31 intake manifold will fit it.

Anything is possible with time and money. But it isn't a direct bolt on.

the twincam plenum won't fit the single cam motor, the distributor, and oil fill are in the way, and will not line up with the intake itself, not sure about the intake itself but without the matching plenum it's useless, for less effort you could fab a plenum from sheet aluminum and not have to deal with the twin intakes
