Is this beautiful or what?

I'd LOVE to put that setup on my GTO...It's just too expensive.

On a 427 with big heads & cam, we saw >70HP increase over a Fast 90.

We have 1 guy who has fitted it to a C5. There was some interference with the cowl (which was trimmed) and the left air-pod needed modifying to fit around the power steering reservoir. I will try & find the photos (he is based in Germany!).

I guess the value is up to the individual to determine ... but the price for the cable-pull version manifold, with air-pods, is about US$3,600 including freight to anywhere in the US.

It only uses as much as it needs to create the relevant power ... it is not much different (if at all) than the standard manifold for cruising ... the amount of fuel used is almost directly proportional to the gains.

DANG!!
I don't think I got that much increase out of my cam! That would probably rock with twin turbo or ATI twqin intercooled setup. Just run a pipe from each intercooler to each side of the manifold.
If I ever go 427 or f/I, I will seriously think of buying one of these. Heck, I'll probably buy one to hang on the wall.

These guys have a manifold that costs $8500.00

yeah, that has been my background now for about 5 months. I posted it up on here a while back and got almost no response, but by the time you ship it over and spend the time and money on the speed density tuning you will be out mucho $$$ and It will really only benifit you if you run a really low lsa cam with crazy duration. You can make a 104 lsa cam idle at 750 with the right tuning and individual TB's.
I am looking at fabricating an 8 TB intake using 8 42mm TB's from an early 2000's gixx. Should be a really nice setup with a lot of potential.

I was thinking a C.F. manifold with aluminum inserts at the flanges. Light, strong, not a heat sink, and can be molded into intricate shapes.
Would be a pretty cool collaborative project for the scientific advancement of LSx performance in North America! Let's start a volunteer sign-up of skilled/interested people!

unfortunately I do not have cad skills. I have always done things the old fashion way. Fabricate then test fit....make adjustments....test fit. Cuss and scream because it doesn't fit....then make some more adjustments.
I know it isn't the most technical way to design something, but it can be effective, and hopefully then taken to someone with the correct machining skills and design skills to really refine it into something affordable and functional on a larger scale production.

No-one complains of the price when they get the results.

I'm very curious about the indiv TB's and have been considering buying a set-up for our 383. Running the ls6 man + a ported stock tb for now with mediocre results.
Thanks,

We built this at GM's request for some of their race programs. They were VERY happy.

That thing looks awesome, but i think you pay more for how it performs than for how good it looks, maybe i am wrong. Anyway, good looking 
I know a lot of people that would pay for that marvelous intake
