Re: LS1 lid and Fast Toys Ram Air

Still curious if you noticed a gain over what you had right before it or if its the coolest setup?

Re: LS1 lid and Fast Toys Ram Air

I will agree with that SOTP feel at High Speeds.....Part aren't too expensive either compared to the LT1 Raim Air setup.....

Re: LS1 lid and Fast Toys Ram Air

What did you do regarding the LS1 radiator shroud fitment?
Any plans on using a fernco instead of that ribbed duct?
Nice to see something new non the less.

As from what I hear from the LS1 guys is that the fernco is for that every bit of power kinda guy....No real HP to be gained there.....

Re: LS1 lid and Fast Toys Ram Air

Yes, I had one and it seemed like it would need a lot of hacking to get it to fit on an lt1.

Re: LS1 lid and Fast Toys Ram Air

Its not bad really ...Just better to know what to do before you do it...As I modded some places that didin't need it....lol....But really only thing I had to modd was were the extra bolt hole in the LS1 airbox was I had to trim it level with the outer one....Almost the whole Piece had to be removed....And if you are looking to get a good seal don't trim the airbox opening on the bottom edges....It will seal much better

already have a smooth bellow coming....for some reason the fernco was too short so i had to use the stock WS6 connector. As you can see i had to cut most of the LS1 air box on the sides as the hood wouldnt close.

Re: LS1 lid and Fast Toys Ram Air

I have a suncoast creations ram air hood, basically a ws6 hood, what do you guys have... if it gives a big SOTP gain then that peaks my interest

Re: LS1 lid and Fast Toys Ram Air
