Short runner manifold I am considering going into production of a manifold that I saw for LS1 engines. I currently make tunnel ram manifolds for Big Block Chevrolet drag racing engines but I saw this fabricated manifold for LS1 and thought it might be a good idea to make it.
I think I can price it around $400 if I can sell a few hundred of them.
My question is if this design is attractive or too radical to the LS1 street application.
You can see the fabricated version at my web page:

This group helped me decide not to make a four valve head about a year ago, I hope you will give me good advice on this manifold project.
Best Regards

A $400 manifold that outperforms the Ls6 intake will have a market.
However, if your design kills low end torque, then you need to set it up for a 90mm TB and chase only the big cam and solid roller conversion market.
