This is an old thread of mine, but thought I would share an update

Quote:

Be real clean to powder coat it red so it blends right in

Thanks for the idea

i'm just curious of how much of a gain you saw with that intake over just a stock LT1 intake. i've debated if the raised runners actually help.

Haven't tested the intake yet. This one has had a lot of porting done so a lot of material as been taken out. I have had a ported GM LT4 and this one and I have a few pics showing how much more material was taken out of the Edelbrock intake than the GM one. The runner length is only marginally longer, 2.8Xin for the GM and around 3.1xin for the Edelbrock.
Larger runners do help in TQ production, but not really between these 2 intakes. Now if the intake runner was around 6inches or so, then we may have something.
