Hey John, did you see the direct port LS1 sheetmetal intakes that were at the Nitrous Warehouse booth? They looked pretty trick but I bet they were PRICEY!

Matt/SLONOMO, Silver LS1, and I were there Thursday and Friday, we didn't go back Saturday..

I am assuming that these are Forged Cranks, or are they heat-treated Stock, etc?

Hey John, you should of stopped by and said hi! Were you there on Saturday only or did you have someone's credentials for Thurs and Friday?

Finally, the aftermarket is starting to do some more LS1 stuff. After 3 days of talking with people, there are more things in the works that should make 2002 interesting indeed. A few things PSJ missed:

Mahle has a very nice FORGED LS1 replacement piston with coated skirts and valve reliefs. They also have a nice ring set but big $$$$

The Holley LS1 intake is heavy indeed. The price will be less then $800 from a vendor you guys know soon. The polished version is up in the air for Holley.

TNT is working on an LS6 MAF direct MAF attached WET setup. They had a direct port displayed too.

Ferrea has a very nice dual spring LS1 setup.

There will be an LS1 editor by January/February that is NOT from LS1Edit but someone we all know who is a leader in the industry.

Multiple companies to have LS1/LS6 rockers 1.7/1.8's...

...much and much more!

To bad I missed you PSJ, I ran into quite a bit of people out there that know you or talked to you on the phone. You are well known in the industry PSJ!!!

Lots of very cool industry people out there and it was great spending the days with them. Thanks for all the beers guys! <img src="images/icons/smile.gif" border="0">

No, you still use your injectors, they just get mounted on top of a very small nozzle plate that gets inserted right into the injector bung.

I missed that intake, I think I missed part of the exhibit. <img src="images/icons/frown.gif" border="0">

<strong>I saw a picture of that new NOS combined replacement fuel injector I think on one of the carmag pages - very well thought out; I'm surprised nobody has thought of it earlier. Blurs the distinction between wet shot and dry shot, but it looks like installation would be much easier and practically eliminates the fuel puddling hazard. <img src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" border="0" alt="[cheers]" />
That's one mod I'd like to see! <img src="graemlins/burnout.gif" border="0" alt="[Burnout]" /> </strong><hr></blockquote>

OOOOOOOPS!

I also saw the new Hooker longtubes! They were in the Holley section.

They were pretty long, maybe longer than Dynatechs?
