just a new super tbi update

ive been at the machine shop everyday for the last 3 days, getting my design into the cad machine.

retail is going to be somewhere like $329.99

thirdgen price will probably be lots less than that. like $250

this is a monster, and if you would like to test it under a confidentiality agreement, please email me. PLEASE REMEMBER if you dont have anything larger than a monster 350hp+ dont bother emailing me at this time.

i will make units that will work on lower powered engines, but not right now. thanks.

Congrats! Looks like all that hard work is coming together nicely for you. I would love to help test them, but I don't think my monster 305 engine could handle it, lol.

I dropped in the 350ho crate engine so hopefully I'll be the first to test it .
Snuf, if you get me the unit before Aug 4th I can take it to East Coast f-body nationals and I'll do a dyno run with your unit against the holley 670cfm unit.

GIVE!!! I'm gunning for 400hp with the Hot Cam, 1.6 RR's and Vortec Heads, Snuf, and I'll engine AND chassis dyno it, too. Email me and we'll talk...

Are your prices with pod/injectors/sensors/IAC? Or, what do we get for the $250????

EDIT: Gonna buy a 670cfm from a Thirdgenner here soon, too, to compare. been too busy to do anything, lately. Market KILLING me, too. OUCH.

240 if you want to be one of the first few.

price includes
1.a tbi base including butterflies (if i can freakin find em for a reasonable price) and shaft with linkage adapter
2.air cleaner adapter,
3.squarebore/spacer adapter
4.454 iac motor maybe with turbo city plug adapter. if i can get em for a good price. i havent talked to them about a deal on those yet.

im workin hard to get at least one if not 5 or 6 built this week. machinist might not have all the stock to cut em out of.

i can have em anodized for 15 extra.
other options might be a billet aicleaner base with lid too for a 14" air filter. no estimated price at all.
polished if you wish for a small price
i will have about 7 pods i will sell for around 45 a peice.
i will also be able to get 454 delco injectors, but have no prices on those yet.

dont worry buys. im rolling on it now that school is out.

patent application is in process of being created too. keep your panties on guys. it wont be long now.

EDIT: dont worry about the market, you should be in for long term anyway. itll be back in a year.

I'm a stock broker, man... I'm banking on the market coming back... Like, REALLY banking on it, fully invested here...

Let me know when I can get one. I have not checked my email in like a week and a half so if you/anyone has emailed me, sorry. I'll get to it as soon as life lets me.

Let the market rally begin...

So let it be written...
So let it be done...

I can get the engine dyno for the day of May 22nd, Snuf. Gonna have one ready by then???

I think I may have cracked some rings in my engine... Seems to have a little blowby after my last dyno thrashing. engine got kinda hot on the dyno when the operator wasn't paying attention to the gage... dumbdonkey. I shouldn't have gone out to get coffee, I guess. Leakdown test Saturday... Please pray it's only my new Vortec heads...

most likely not by then, i still need to call bbk about 58mm blades. holley parts emailed me back to check with them on those. calling tomorow.

i might just make a 2" first instead, since i have those blades, or maybe a ill make a pair from scratch.

I might do a rebuild anyhow. Might just do it 'cause I got like 20k on this motor along with LOTS of dyno beating (chassis and engine) and that is gettin' old to me... Later.

Snuf, I'm sure you've probably checked with these guys for throttle plates, but thought I'd mention them. www.braswell.com
They have lots of t-plates all sizes and inexpensive.
My 2 cents.
