race ported lt1 manifold

it has had extensive port modifications including:
a monoblade throttle body opening, increased plenum area and raised runners!!!
this is intended for a high power forced induction or naturally aspirated engine

this would work best combined with high flowing heads and an intended rpm range above 6000


here is where this manifold differs from common 'port matched' lt1 intakes:
the area above the intake port runners has aluminum plates professionally welded to allow raising the inside runners
this increased plenum volume and positioned the air flow more directly into the cylinder head
this method has been proven over the years to allow larger camshafts and total airflow yet retain factory manifold accessory locations and hardware
it is essentially a 'high rise' single plane intake like old style manifolds.

the opening for a monoblade throttle body is top notch for stock cofiguration engines seeking maximum air flow without major and expensive intake manifold conversions.
the intake runners improved shape and raised angle allows better air charge into the cylinder head, while the port opening is still the lt1 / lt4 size to maintain air velocity and use with ported stock heads as well as aftermarket heads utilizing an lt1/lt4 gasket. Afr 210 heads were matched to this manifold.
the manifold was disassembled, glass beaded, welded atop the runners, ported inside, smoothed and monoblade opening done.it has egr block off plates installed along with a removable plug in the factory pcv hole.

these can be removed as needed or left to run is they are.
the outside of the manifold a has been painted with high temp red.
$225 and buyer pays shipping and paypal fee.

Re: race ported lt1 manifold

Could you email me pics?

I will be building a blown 383 on the spray (for track days) and was seriously considering a SBC single plane conversion but a quality worked factory manifold has a big appeal to me as well.

My email is DillaJ86@gmail.com

Thanks,




Joe

Re: race ported lt1 manifold

You've got mail.

I am really considering this and wish I knew better how well it would compare to some of the SBC conversion manifolds ...

Thanks and hopefully we can work something out bud.
