All you have to do is get an elbow from a Impala,Cadillac,or Roadmaster (I already had one from my Impala) and then go to AutoZone and get a Grant horn button. Install the button inside of the hole of the elbow and your done. Cost is $4 if you can find a elbow or you can go to a sporting store and get a practice hockey puck for 99cents. I could tell a little difference in lowend but seem to be no change up. Enjoy.

 

Or you can take your stock one, remove the donkey dick and plug it up. Thunder Racing sell the piece to plug it. Same thing.

 

I tried plugging mine up, siliconed it in. It was a really tight fit but it still kept getting sucked into the throttle body. Guess 383s breath a little deeper.

 

someone wanna fill me in on what exactly yall are talkin about?

Scroll down on this page and you can see the 1le elbow and the plug mentioned earlier. Note how there is no resonator hanging down from it.

 

what i did on my 30th ann. was get a cap from a spray paint bottle or carb. cleaner and put it in and then screw it in the sides and it has never cam out, price= FREE

 

yeah thats a good idea

 

well one guy is talking about.....



The other guy is talking about.....


While a third guy mentioned something like.....


But the part that got me the most was......

<< censored


and I still dont know or never seen.....


So in other words it has to do with replacing the intake rubber elbow conected to the Intake manifol... but someone talked about just replacing that long dong like thing hangin out from underneath the rubber bellows with that Grant Horn Button..

Now why ???? What gains are we talking about?

 

I didnt say take the stick out. I said use the elbow from a Impala and put a grant horn button in the hole which is on top not the bottom like the camaro.

And why would anybody want to spend $35 for a plug that you dont even see. I was just trying to help out from people spending alot when I only spend $3.47 at Autozone for a chrome horn button and a free elbow I already had to make a 1le elbow.

As for gains.. it should give you the same gains as a 1le elbow does which I see go for little as $60 and high as $75.

 

Sorry to burst your bubble but the impala elbow is acctually "smaller" then our stock elbows & the 1le, our stock f-body elbows are the same size as the 1le except they have a donkey dick on them, the impala one is acctually smaller all around.

 

yep... big body lt1's = 3" vs. fbody lt1's = 3.5"... oh and to plug my hole i did some fancy cutting on some cardboard and used some duct tape.... i made it look good, even though you cant really see it that well from the top anyways...

 

head and sholders cap + Silicone + Zip Ties = no more donkey dick

 

I can't wait to see my G/fs face when I tell her how I replaced my Donkey dick with a head and shouldders cap and some Silicone!!!

Mental


edit: Its this silicone a danger to my O2's?

 

I see what you are saying in being smaller because of the MAF sensor but I could not tell any difference in size far as flow is concern because both ends were the same size. But hey I learn something new everyday. Thanks for the info. But this has to do till I rebuilt the motor and go all out. Im gathering parts to do a 383 for my Impala first then by this time next year the Camaro gets done.

 

lol...dude thats funny. Naw the silicone shouldn't be a danger to ur 02's, it didnt do anything to my cousins 95 Lt1 so I don't think it will do anything to you.
