I've ordered mine. That intake is said to allow an F1A to fit without cutting anything. My F1A and intake should be here any day now. It would be nice if someone did some back to back dyno pulls with this intake VS the stock one

post up some pics when you get it. should be a sweet setup.

someone would probally sell a ton of them if they did back to back dyno runs testing it if there was a good gain. now if only there was a shop that works on a ton of procharged fbody's and post a lot of ls1tech.....

i hope Bob jumps in here, i wonder if the pipe is round all the way, and what size it is-i am running a vette setup in a chevelle, and am using an f body intake tube now, had to cut the nipple off and cover it-i made up an intake using a procharger short hat, welded a flat plate on it, then a short nipple to attach to the s/c flange-its only about 3.5" inlet, dont know how rest. it would be-i had one truck tube from procharger, but the curve was wrong-the one in the pic might work, if i cut it b4 the first curve-wonder what year truck it was for

I'm using it on my ta with stock 3.5 twin intercoolers fits good and looks like it would flow better but you have to do some triming

Did anyone reach a resolution to this. I have the truck inlet hat from EPP but I can't get it to work for the same reason as the picture above.

Yea I couldn't figure it out if the racevalve faced the other way it might work. This is the only thing on the whole kit that doesn't fit together it been a month trying to get this inlet hat to work. The reason it works on Bob's car is the racevalve is positioned next to the throttle body.

Anyone had any luck with the procharger bellmount assembly. I'm trying to figure out if I can fit one of those. I am running a/c for the moment.
