I am glad to see you was able to use a stock tb on there. I will get one sooner now, For a stock cubed motor, the ported stock tb should do pretty well, the intake should do better then my truck intake on my nova since it will keep up with the power band that my cam likes.


Thanks for posting the pics

i would like to thank DMan also for providing the pics.

My first thought when I saw this new intake is that it would look good in the bay of a Fox body. And coincidentally, the first pics to be posted are of a Fox body

Looks good; I would love to see some top view pics that show the whole engine bay when you get a chance.

i'll get some more pics tonight and hold a tape measure up to it as well.

i'll say this, it looks 10 times better in person than it does in the pics..

Looks Baddass ! It looks tall in the pic hope it has good cowl clearance on F bodys. I cant wait to see a Street Warrior, Fast , and Edelbrock Shootout. All these intake manifolds hitting the market will surely have an affect on Fast sales, maybe the Fast will come down on price.

good point Y2K ... hope you're right

edit: I love listening to all the 4th gen guys whine about hood clearance

s/c'd.... you going to go with a TVS2300? You stud you! lol.
way to go man, i would love to do something like that. speaking of blowers, i am curious how this intake manifold will perform as a forced induction manifold, like with a centrifugal or turbo application.

HAve you measured as to whether this will fit under the hood of a goat?

I am also really anxious to see how this manifold performs. i am praying it lives up to the hype and claims. It would be great for us LS guys if there is a manifold that performs liek the claims for the price. The Fast is a big chunk of change, although it has come down a lil. Also, for street guys, the bigger mid range torque gain offered by this intake is appealing, as it is to me. i find big fat torque gains sexy.

so you currently have an APS? Excellent man. Whats you reasoning behind going from the APS setup to a TVS? Is it a street car, and you want more instant torque for ythe street fun?

i miss that whine of a s/c , having had a cavalier with a M45 than ran low 14's and coulda ran high 13's with dr's , and 2 gtp's , and a eco cav with a M62

but the big reason is the tvs is simple , and less weight on the nose

Bob throw one on a car and get it on the dyno. If they perform I can garuntee you'll have to order more the next day.

I would think FI applications would show the best gains
