the intake thats in this picture.. where can i get something similiar that runs to both sides of the engine bay?

 

That had to be custom fabricated. That's a showcar F-body with a LT5 engine, right?

Only dual-sided CAI I remember is that overpriced SLP one which is no longer being produced.

 

I love that engine...

 

Come on boys..that is the finest V-8 GM ever put into a vehicle. That is the dual cam ZR-1 engine made from 1990-1995 for th Vette....one fine piece of engineering!

 

I already said it was an LT-5 engine.

 

personally, i am a big fan of our good ol'e pushrod sbc

 

It's nice, but you better have deep pockets!

 

Yep, Dealer cost back in 93 was almost 30K for the engine alone.... (Long Block)

 

LS7 > LT5

 

True. But I think the best performance GM motor to date will be the roots blown northstar they are developing for the STS-V. I just hope they don't cover up that roots with a big piece of plastic! That LT5 air hose is nice, but you will have to move some stuff to get it to fit in a thirdgen.

 

move some stuff? i already ditched the charocal canister, and i have no problem relocating the battery.

 

From the picture below, it looks as if only the metal tube attached to the throttle body was re-used.

 

 

LT5 will go down as the greatest in my book :-)

If u even remotely understand what the guys used to have to go thru back then to get a car done and the fact that we had a ZR1 at all says alot.

The LS7 basically has corporate GM going make it whack a viper and make it 1/3 the cost of a real exotic. (no, believe me this is not bashing the LS1 series engines, which are just as great, just a different environment here 20yr later)

Besides, no one else jammed a motor with 400+ hp in a car that was designed from the ground up in the 80's and gave it a warranty :-)

They even worked out the neat details like the upcoming 475hp versions. Some saw the lite of day as the Doug Rippie black widow cars as retrofits.
