i dont think the sheetmetal will show that much of a gain in power unless its on a full blown race car with huge cam and big compression where it needs to rev over 7000rpms. then i can see it making some bigger numbers over stand LSx intakes. but for most applications, i’d say lsx manifold with direct port is just about as good as it gets ---

i want to do a direct port nitrous setup on my HSR. i know my motor cant handle the shot now, maybe just a 100 shot, but i think i want to now build a nitrous motor down the road. spray it with a 250 shot ---

all forged small block, gen I. either a 350 or 383, but i was considering a 383 so i can make more power on motor, but it be abit more difficult to tune i think. Just would take alot more time to do right but i probly could get it close. i’m just beginning this tuning stuff ---

yep. i was even thinkin of a nitrous cam too…even tho i’ll probly be off the bottle most of the time while i drive so i wanted as much n/a power as possible but still use a cam with enough duration split for nitrous. Those XFI cams is what i’m considering for n/a power…else i’m thinkin one of the custom combination motorsports nitrous grinds
