Default Injected LS7 single plane w/ Kinsler 4bbl [pics]

I thought you guys might like to see how this single plane install turned out. This is our Desert Attack LS7 off-road engine for Baja Trucks. This particular one got the LS7 single plane manifold, fabbed fuel rails from the LS7 production rail, and a Kinsler 1000cfm 4 barrel throttle body with progressive throttle linkage.

Horsepower approaching 650, thats all I can share though. No torque numbers, no dyno graphs and no, it won't fit under the cowl of an f-body.

Yes. Nothing else has been done to it besides mocking up the injectors/tb/etc.

Do you think 1000cfm is enough.

Actually much of our business right now is off-road Baja trucks. Everybody make sure to cheer for Ronn Bailey motorsports in the Dakar Rally Jan 6-21 2007. The ONLY independant US Dakar team is powered by a Katech LS7!

Have you guys done any runner work or testing with runner work to see what the gains to be had are or is this piece so good as its cast that your fighting for the last 1/10th of 1% ?? I have been looking at this intake or some time.

We have not done any runner work or any other kind of development with this manifold. You may be right about fighting for miniscule gains.

it won't fit under the cowl of an f-body.
Who gives a flip about an F-body.....it would look just fine under my G-body

Is there a linkage set-up compatible with D-B-W?

No, you'd have to fab an elbow.
