I don't know if I like the elbow. It seems like it really reduces the cross sectional area down before it necks inot the intake. What is the eta looking like on a finshed retail product being ready for sale. I do like the idea of getting all the needed parts from one place. I was looking to buy your halo dry kit, but now I'm holding off to see how this one turns out. Are you going to have some comparison numbers on this kit vs any other intake system?

We will see what the hp does. Just remember you are only flowing threw a 90mm bore in the throttle body to start with. and that is 3.5 inches. Which is 9.61 sqaure inches, and the opening in the front of the elbow is 3.75 across and a bit over 2.5. Lets say 2.6 tall and that equals 9.75 so the opening is a little larger if looking at the square inches.

I've very suprised there isnt more feedback.

Im liking the the idea rather than going with a 90/90 combo.

I'm guessing that the pricing will be better than the 90/90 combo, and perform better as well.

Any kind of nitrous distribution issues to be faced with when using this carb style intake?

Not to answer for Dave, but I think this should eliminate dist problems. The central dist point compared to front dist explains this. Also, having the plenum above the runners addresses this issue and more.

Dave, kudos on a job well done. Will this fit a Corrvette concerning hood clearance?

Are you making one for the LT1 also, or just the LS1?
