That looks like it'd have JUST enough room to fit injectors+rail in. Then again... I think the injectors go inside the top of the throttle bodies. See that hole, and then on the other side's where it's a curved part. Looks like it's set up for the BOSCH tall injectors (the new thin ones). Or is it just me?

EDIT: Nope, it's not my imagination (Switched pics, better view)





UH OH! I smell turbo lover envy >_>





Last, but not least, the kick in the pants (wallet area)

Products page shows $100 less than the above link, not that isn't that big of difference lol
Link to the SBC one. "Will not fit Vortec heads", pff, they clearly underestimate the power of a drill press

Here's the entire setup a few hundred less than the list price on their website:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Parts...=p4506.c0.m245


EXTRUDABODY

Chevy X-Ram ITB Kit



Package Includes, everything from the Filters to the Heads, minus the Injectors. Just add the appropriate size injectors for your HP needs and bolt it on, add your favorite Electronics, tune and go.

Package based on the Pierce X-Ram intake manifold. Extrudabody ITB's are 45mm ID taper bores that taper out to 50mm Airhorns. 45mm ID ITB's match the Manifold perfectly.

Fits all SBC except those with Vortec Heads.
Will not work with HEI "large" cap distributors.
Excellent hood clearance and looks.
TPS is included with a Mini Harness.
Set-up for standard Bosch size injectors, but rail mounts are adjustable for other size Injectors.
Foam filters are included, but Stack Filters are an Upgrade.
Throttle Cable is a center pull system and "Braided" type cables are available.
Linkage system is provided.

Yea, I noticed some of them were longer. Pretty nifty design. But why only 3-9"? If you got more 50mm extensions... all you'd need is longer bolts. Not that you'd really need or want more, except maybe after the injector as a sort of throttle body spacer heh

I consider blowers to be the Roots/Whipple chargers and superchargers to just be the Centrifugal chargers heh Just because really the only kind back in the day (which I'm not from, but grew up learning about) were roots/whipple.

Anyways, yea, 2 pipes coming up the middle from the intercooler and then branching out to those with the "boost covers" would be pretty sweet!
