Magnuson F-body - new dyno results I'm still installing the I/C kit, and should have it finished soon, but in the meantime, we were doing a little dyno work yesterday on the non- I/C car in my sig. Since this engine has ported heads, and lower comp(10.0:1) we decided to install a smaller pulley, and get a little more boost out of it.
We are now seeing a solid 7 PSI and the new numbers are 467RWHP/453RWTQ!
That was better than I expected, the I/C kit should easily make 500RWHP
More info to come soon,
Ed

I agree, the 122 would be needed for bigger engines. It will need a little more height, but nothing major.

The enitre cut area is about 3"x11" , and nothing needs to be re-located. The hood does need a little bit removed from the inner structure, but not a very big piece. I actually cut mine out way to big! some of the different hoods out there might not even need that, mine is the standard flat Z28 hood, but an SS hood, or Ram Air hood may have enough clearence already.
The entire subframe is lowered, much like a 4x4 lift kit, which allows the use of factory motor mounts, sway bars, suspension,etc. The nice thing is, that factory ride height, and alignment specs stay the same. The production kits will be intercooled, but my prototype in the pics is not.

Even though running an I/C will end up giving you more power (since you can safely run more boost and timing without detonation), you probably won't see much of any increase on the dyno since your car won't have the oncoming air that it would at 60+MPH. Someone feel free to correct me if I am incorrect in my logic here.
