OK, so yesterday I went ahead and installed the holley cold air kit; and the vortech intake elbow. The only thing I noticed was smooth acceleration; smooth idle; and it wants to rev a tad bit quicker. Also I drove to work this morning thru traffic and it's about 34 miles and when I got to work I opened the hood to feel the intake. The elbow was very cool to the touch as well as the rest of the intake; I was happy because my stock intake seemed to absorb a lot of heat. But it was a pain the dairy air to install and line up correctly. For the most part though this was a good purchase and the vortech elbow is nice and so is the Holley Intake!!

 

Did you get the those heads and cam in there yet?- Rob

 

not yet; funds are extremely low right now due to the ex-wife but so far I have everything except the gaskets and cam and the time to get it done. I also am going to install some hooker LT's while I'm at it for a few extra ponies...

 

how much was the holley kit and wehre did you find it? is it a good deal? hwo does it compare to ligenfelter and k& n and moroso slp??

 

I picked it up new from a friend of mine for 120.00. How does it compare? well I'm not sure of a comparison but the filter does not go into the bottom of the recess like the other kits but it comes with a seperator plate to block it off from the compartment. It was a tight fit but worked out great. I am trying to find out if she has any more since she had 2 more and I shot them out but if you go to holley's site @ http://www.holley.com/HiOctn/ProdLin...B/120-300.html you can see what it looks like. I like it because it is kind of trick looking especially the filter and like I stated it stays cool to the touch even when my temp went to 190.

 

Congrats. I've had my eye on the vortech elbow for a while, but I kinda want the Trick Flow elbow instead since it will match my orange stripes.(In case you didn't know, the end attachments of the Trick Flow elbow are orange.) But I got some other mods in plan before i purchase it.

 

I was going to go with the trick flow but jegs and summit had them back ordered for like 2 months!!! So I said screw it let me try the vortech one and it seems pretty sweet although it 's kind of heavy.

 

If your referring to the silicone ends, you can get any color you want from those on that racers supply website
