Accel super ram intake
Accel super ram intake Ok im going to get my camaro sometime this month (i hope). My dad says i should get a tuned port injection setup of of an old 80's camaro. I've been reading up on it and my conclusion is that those stock setups really suck in the upper rpm range and rob horse power. Then i stumbled across the accel super ram tpi setup and they are supposed to really out perform the stock tpi setups.
So my question is this: Does anyone konw anything about those accel super ram setups and is it worth putting one of those on an LT1 or would that just be a waste of my time/money. Any help at all would be great

actually the holley stealthram I've been told will make better power than stock, just modifying one to fit an LTX aint cheap...

...i had to drill all the bolt holes, the outermost courners matched but were at the wrong angle anyhow...i put the gasket up to the intake, aligned the outermost holes and marked the ones i needed to drill...then i had to have wedge washer made, because the flange is not at the same angle as the bolt needs to be...i also bought a mallory pump drive to plug the distributor hole in the back, and took out the factory drive thats bolted to the block under the intake, thats just in case i decide to run a regular distributor later...thermostat and heater hose holes are all blocked off with stainless plugs...aeroqip makes fittings to plug into factory fuel lines, one is 3/8 and listed for lt1, the return one is 5/16 and in their catalog its listed for some ford application but looks right in the picture, and it fits perfect and works...throttle body bolts up, i had to get a tuneport throttle cable bracket, and used a lo-kar throttle cable...pcv valve i plugged into the valve cover, and pluged a vac hose into the factory map...this is as far as i got right now, theres still some details to attend to..
Depends on what it is used for, I MAY have to get technical, lol

at Edelbrock to come out with the same design as the stocker??? They could have at least increased the plenum volume. Now they are promising a new design yet again. Deja Vu?Take a look at dyno sheets on L98 350's that compare miniram/stealth ram/stock LT1 manifolds. The stock LT1 manifold not only makes the least horsepower out of the bunch but it also makes less torque. At one time I was interested in fitting a stealth ram to a 4th gen LT1. Only problem is it won't clear the cowl otherwise it would be a great bolt on and not that expensive other than making it fit. If a large group of us F-body owner's could convince Holley to make a stealt ram for the LT1 I would buy that any day over that air gap from Edelbrock assuming they ever even come out with it. A plastic one would be even better for less weight and heat soak. HELLO Edelbrock??? Why make it out of aluminum? Why not improve it instead of making something slightly better than stock???
end rant.

Going with a stock lt1 intake is cheap so A LOT of tpi guys do it but the stealthram beats the stock and miniram at every rpm level in hp and torque. Stealthram is Much better than stock hands down I have seen the proof time and time again on lt1s. The BRE Proram is a takeoff on the stealthram not the lt1...I wonder why

If you have an L98 get a stealth ram. That is by far the best bang for the buck on those cars as well as ported heads.
