Default Custom Prochager Plenum

You may remember this thread awhile ago:
https://ls1tech.com/forums/dynamometer-results-comparisons/701050-d1sc-bolt-ons-e85-545rwhp.html

I finally got my custom plenum to match

That engine looks so nice, I wouldn't want to beat on it. Just leave it in the garage and look at it.

I bought them from GM parts direct and had my neighbor paint those as well.

I agree. Well done man. I like the use of paint and schemes like that alot more than tons of chrome and polish.

i think it would look really good with some brused or polished alum.
tubing with red silicone couplers and chrome or polish tbolt clamps
also black chrome would look killer for the tubing with red silicone couplers
looks trick as is

looks realy good do you enter it in car shows. I would be afraid to drive something that nice, let alone wrench on it.

Nice work! I always thought of doing something similar if I ever went the Procharger route.

That looks good man! We have a customer that coated his plenum and did some stainless tin work up front, looks pretty nice.

I actually have two of them. One inline between the stock pcv and intake. One inline between the front, passenger side valve cover and the blower inlet hat. I have not had to empty them yet after about a 1000miles. The one to the blower hardly has a trace in it. The one to the intake has about a 1/4" in it.
