Is it possible to make my lt1 have a set up like the one from transformers it just looks so.... well you know

is it even a set up for the lt1 to look something like it if so where and how much?




and the video

Congratulations on a question that most likely has never been asked on this particular board.

Thank you, but do you even have the slightest clue if it would work?

Kinsler builds a "cross-ram" setup for the SBC.... I'm sure they would be glad to adapt one to the LT1. They do the injection for the C5-R and C6-R engines. Cross-ram is the second row, second from left in the photo below:

This is their LS7X intake/injection setup... won't help your LT1, but shows you what they can do....

Didn't the hot sexy bitch say something like "nice carburetor..." in the movie?
Didn't catch it the first time since I was in a dream drinking her bath water, but nonetheless?

yeah she did along with " you have a high rise intake double pumper" " it squirts the fuel in so you can go faster" i'd still take her for a few weeks, then discard when freshness date expires.

Yeah, her line as I recall commented on his "double pumper" which makes no sense given the set up with that engine. The tech advisers missed that one.

Race engine intake systems look sexy, but suck for the street. Years ago I crewed track roadsters running methanol 350 SBCs with the Enderle mechanical FI set-ups as shown in Injuneers post. high 4s at 130s in 8th.

that line in the movie always bugged me! but let it go because she said "Double PUMPER" lol

mmmm bathwater

Without doing any research at all, I'm gonna guess that an intake setup like that for an LT1 would cost no less than $5,000, would make no useful power below 5,000rpm, and would idle well above 2,000rpm.

YoungCompton

same thing i was thinking but its a great what if set up

Zigroid

you're right about the price but not so much about the others...

I'm not 100% sure on the power range of an individual runner setup but I would imagine it can be tuned to whatever range you need. The harrop individual runner setup supposedly makes more power everywhere over an LS6 or fast90 intake. its not like a single plane carb style intake.

as for idle, it tames cams. there is a video of a holden monaro in aussieland idling with some huge 24x/24x duration cam on a 106lsa. long periods of valve overlap can't "contaminate" (is it called intake reversion? that sounds familiar) the cylinder next door because no cylinder shares the same plenum space. I'm sure the smarter guys on here can offer a better explanation.

each port has to be individually tuned to get all cylinders to match flow rates. Looked into this a bit when I was looking at a GT40 kit car. Found it to be too expensive compared to just standar FI.

However, no one doubts how sexy it looks.
