Default Edelbrock intake on a vy commodore 1 tunna

Got my Intake Thursday last week ..



ARP bolts



Fuel rails



And the center piece




Didn’t muck around First thing Friday morning I jumped strait in to pulling down the engine ..



Found a couple of very smalls issues with the fit
I had to dremmel out the IAC sensos as the manifold blocks it off completely.



Also had to extend my MAP sensor 4 inches to fit the new side mount ..

Had to sit it in to check clearence and take pics asap..



Fuel rails and throttle body are on



LOOKS **** HOT!!



Tidied up the wires a little and threw my custom made tappett covers on and …Well the pictures don’t do it justice ..







Here is a quick vid







A HUGE THNX TO RICHARD AT WEST COAST RACING HEADS.

I am hoping for a comparrison power run this week.I had it dynoed a few weeks back so the numbers for this manifold bolt on should be close to accurate.

I was looking forward to smashing 2 stockies on the Sunday but the comp was cancelled due to wind direction...
