Default Frankenstein Low-Pro Billet Manifold





It's here and it's badass. No sales pitch here, just getting the word out on the latest and greatest from our camp!

Designed to fit under stock F-Body/C5/C6 hoods etc. etc.

The INITIAL Low-Pro (pictured) is designed for any LS7 head setup. Future runners will fit LS3 setups. Designed and manufactured in house in Texas! Once released it will be priced EXTREMELY competitive. By far the lightest as well. Hope y'all like it!

In due time SLOW SEDAN. These pictures are "day of" shots as it comes off the Mazak. I'm just trying to portray what the rest of the industry hasn't from what I've seen since stepping into this industry, HOW they come up with their results.

alocker, our site is almost finished my man. We've made a huge change in the last 6 months and the website is about the last of what we have left to get up and running.

In this general vicinity. Right in front of our new Dyno room and Spintron room. Like I was saying to SLOW SEDAN we'll have real world numbers for ALL of our products. As well as being made in America.

No sir, THIS manifold is our Low-Pro model. Pricing will be in the $3K range.

No sir, THIS manifold is our Low-Pro model. Pricing will be in the $3K range. But yes a05c, not for the faint of heart not looking to make maximum power.
