Who makes this LS1 blower manifold ? Hi all,
Just wondering if anyone knows who makes this generic blower manifold for the LS1.
I found the manufacturers site once before but have been unable to find it since.
Here's a couple of pics. I hope someone can identify it.
Cheers
Michael

Well I ended up buying it for my home made blower setup on the Cobra.
It took a bit of machining to make it fit the motor. I think it was designed around the LS1 valley plate rather than the later LS6 so I had to machine the underside to make a bit of clearance.
Got to re do the injector holes and machine the top plate to suit the Eaton M112. I just set it up roughly to check out how I'm going to do the drive and whether I had enough hood clearance.
Cheers

That was the thought...something like that with a cheap Lightning or Cobra blower on top. Wouldn't set the world on fire but it would make some decent power gains for a **** ton less than a $6-8k magnuson setup.
You can get the blowers for well under $500.

Ive been looking at the whipples for two days trying to figure out why they're cathedral lower manifold and forward facing 2.9 charger wont fit under the Fbody cowl better than a Holley Hi Ram...
I don't have any issues with clearance to really worry about. Nor do a lot of swap guys so this seems like a nice alternative to going turbo like a lot of people do, especially if the builder has modest power goals and doesn't want the hassle of a turbo car.
Making that lower manifold for a cathedral port, then different bolt pattern tops for whichever blower you get your hands on. Pretty simple. I may do the same for a 4.0L whipple on my car if they sell just the charger. I dont think the M112 will support my 900hp goal. Although the side mount version would fit just fine in an Fbody.
