Holley manifold, cut down to 4.25"
LS1 throttle body, fed by a powerdyne supercharger
Sheetmetal elbow to connect to the throttle body.

The things that pop into my head.

Can't wait to see the finished product. I bet you'll be done before BBK releases the "Turtle-Ram"

Re: I wonder how this will go...

Looks cool! I like that Holley intake. Are you going to make the elbow yourself?

Here's a pic of my setup. Its the Vic Jr EFI, wilson elbow, Accufab ford TB 90mm. I had to mill a little off the elbow to get everything to fit under the stock hood. Hopefully get it it all running before too long.

I don't have a metal brake or the ability to weld aluminum, so I'm outsourcing that to www.intakeelbows.com. If you look in the directory there is a template of the dimensions of the elbow that must be made. No off the shelf elbow will do it. It has to be under 4.75" high or it will hit the hood, it also has to be exactly 2.50" forward, and it has to jump over the fuel rail. Very custom.

If I had more room I would have went with the wilson elbow you have.

Re: I wonder how this will go...

What kind of HP/TQ numbers are you guys hoping/expecting with this type of manifold?

Re: I wonder how this will go...

I believe that Edelbrock has adaptors for doing the carb intake to a fuel injection throttle body now, in summit racing. I thought about doing that, back in 2002 before they made those, or had the HSR, so I modified a TPI for my iroc, and it worked great, but then they came out with the HSR, so thats what I'm going with now, check mine out at
