Why not design an old ROOT's style blower with our standard TB thats within a reasonsable price.

i think the optimun for this set up would be a built motor in the 6500-7000rpm range with a big 4-hole tb, custom rails, and big low impedence injectors. add F.A.S.T or a Motec system, and RUN! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

a carb would be cool too.

Jay, let me know how this works out...ill come by and take a look...snap some pics and all that.

if i drag raced...all out i mean...i would go carb. not on an LS1, but for easy of tuning and the fact that its just plain easier. FI can easily out do a carb in almost every category, but its a bit more difficult.

i think the point of this intake is the fact that its carb-style. i.e. i can put a big fat accel or kinsler four-hole tb that pulls in upwards of 12-1500cfm and have a much shorter runner (and larger) for high rpm race applications. many LT1 guys have gone this way. I even think there's an adapter to fit a stock style LT1 TB to a Victor Jr. style intake.

He did beat around the bush about a FI setup. He really didn't give me much info as of yet. He did say that he'd be interested in letting someone test one out if they wanted to. I totally agree that we need some solid data before they start really selling them. I will get back with more info when he gets back with me.

I know that many pro mod cars are fuel injected running 160lb+ injectors. Aren't Funny cars blown, fuel injected, alcohol motors?

I might also be a good canadite for some R&D. I am building my SS for open road racing applications where the RPM's would never come below 5500. Mid range torque loss isnt an issue with me. If these ever end up in production I would definatly be standing in line for one.

It'll have a 100mm turbo.

Guys,

After I speak with him again this next week I'll see how he would like to work this if he wants a few candidates to try it out. I'll let y'all know.

Only way I'd want anything to do with a carb intake for LS1, would be a nice low/medium rise one that would fit in my 72 Vette.

Otherwise, no thanks.
