Hey guys..... I've noticed LOTS of guys don't realize that we make any size and shape elbow you want. Yes, the LS1 stock hood elbows are a tight bend, but compared to the others that are fitting under stock hoods, these are pretty good for the the space there is to work with. If you run an elbow under a stock hood, there is no other choice but to have a tight bend.
Get some dropped motor mounts, a raised cowl hood, or a truck and you can run a taller elbow.

Hey guys just to let you know my car was the one that FastFatboy put in those photos with the accufab 4150 4 barrel mounted under the hat with the intake tube going down to behind the passengers side headlight....
I got the blow thru carb hat from Procharger. It's one of their 4150 style carb hats designed for using a blower with a carb. But it fits the accufab throttle bodies perfect. And it is capable of being pointed any direction you want it unlike most elbows.... With an elbow you are fixed to going one direction.
All of the tubing I got from a place called Global Tech Engineering. They sell aluminum tubing in any gauge, bend, length you want.... moderately cheap as well. I ordered a bunch of 18 gauge aluminum in 3" OD. Straights and bends to make sure we had enough stock. Costs like 100 bucks... And then I had my engine builder tig the **** all together and we did a plate with a flange that mounts a 9" conical air filter off the bottom under the car while the plate seperates the hot engine compartment air from the dense under car air.... if
The hat was like 200 bucks from Procharger. They had polished ones as well for all you "Bling Bling" guys...
My 4150 throttle body works great. Accufab makes a great product. I had no problem tuning it either. NO tip in issues, part throttle response is great an it's a beast at the track...

With the original topic in mind.... Did you have anything done to the All Pros or are they out of the box as cast?
I'd like to see if there are any variances in performance with a boosted application. Take an intake with a traditional style TB, swap to a 4150 style with a hat on it, and see what the differences if any are.
