Default Weiand L92 Street Warrior

I did a search on this and found nothing. So I thought I would post a few pics of the Prototype Weiand Street Warrior for L92 heads that was on display today at the LSX shootout.

After all of the problems with the LS1/LS6 version, I hope what he told me was true. He said that the LS1 version will be shipping in December and the L92 version should be out by spring/summer 09. Sorry, I was not able to get pics of the underside.

Thumbs up

Nice, I was hoping someone would grab some pics and info from Memphis about this thing, thanks.

So now it's December instead of the formerly promised November time frame, why am I not shocked by that LOL.

Hmmmm...If they have the MAP Sensor in the back, then they must have the one in the front as an alternate mounting point for it... Nice. That thing is sex.

why stick with FAST? They haven't said much, at least about the L92 version as to when it's coming out, performance #'s or anything as far as I know. I've emailed them numerous times with no response.
FWIW-my L92 heads flowed 330+ cfm through the stock ported intake.
Maybe the stock intake is good enough? I'm starting to wonder.

330 CFM is freakin' sick. That's awesome! There's gotta be improvement from a better flowing manifold though. All but sheet metal intakes that I've seen flow 300 CFM or less @ whatever the standard pressure drop measurement is (am thinking that the test standard is around 1 psi, 32 inches of water or so). So, if your getting 330 CFM then there's gotta be an advantage in using a less restrictive intake because of the pressure drop increase through your stocker @ 330 CFM. Is the L92 Street Warrior claiming these kind of flow numbers? If it is & it can, it would indeed be a good manifold

there is a thread on here with tests of both the l92 warrior and the cathedral port style. the l92 versoin doesnt seem to make very good power even in the middle, but the cathedral port one did make descent power under the curve but died a lot on top. i will see if i can find the thread...

If it doesn't make power past 6,200 rpms, then I will stick with the stocker. If FAST ever does come out with a version for the L92 guys you know its going to make power through 7,000 rpms.

I still want to see what this thing does with a big Cam targeted at bringing up the power a little bit into the higher RPM's. So far for the cost I'm honestly not too impressed.

This what get me though..look at that company's testing with their LS3 HO Engine..if you look at the Graph on their website of that Engine with the regular LS3 Intake on it, the specs are like a difference of 2hp under the Weiand graph they posted up. Doesn't look like that big of a gain there..

I can say from personal experience at the track that my hydraulic motor (441) with the ported L92 runs faster ET's shifting it at a higher rpm.
I've shifted as low as 6200rpm's and as high as 6600 rpms and I've seen a difference of
+3mph when shifting it higher.
This week we will raise the rev limiter and shift it a bit higher and see what happens.

I will be interested to see how the new Fast/Weiand would compare to a well ported stock L92 intake.

if the stocker flows that well why does it stop pulling around 6100-6200 rpm? my motor pulls clean to 6900, but the graph shows the intake dead ay 6200.
