New NRE Billet Intake Manifold

[TOM NELSON]

This is our new Intake manifold.pictures are at http://www.lateral-g.org/NRE This is the new standard intake on our TT motors and na 427s Some of its highlights are it uses Hidden dual injectors per cyl.For a combined 120 pound per hour of injector per hole along with injectors placed for a straight shot at the back of the valve.Built in boost refernced fuel regulators one for primary injectors one for secondary.Stainless throttle linkage on heim joints which is hidden in the center of the throttle body.Offset throttle shaft in t.b so it won't stick open under big boost conditions.The entire manifold is cut from solid billet and has all oring connections.Weve taken the best of all the intakes over the years and slapped it in this.The runners have a specific taper angle and the plenum volume is all scienced out.And the best thing is it's exactly the same everytime because the entire intake is fully Cnc machined.The tps,map,air temp are also machined into lower plenum to be hidden.All the fuel connections are in the back of the manifold. two in two out.Weve dynoed 6 of these so far and the results are incredible the throttle response of this intake is like no other motor weve ever tested.You can breathe on the throttle and its on the limiter.My normal tt 427 is now making 1730 hp with this intake and idles like a kitten.I will have videos in a week or so along with billet valve covers to match the intake.Let me Know what you think.

Tom A++++
BB..... soon ?

572 that intake oh boy.... I don't think they will even be ready!!!

[TOM NELSON]

We will be offering it in a non polished it's actually my favorite finish.Scott will post a shot of one later tonight.The manifold you see is for short and tall deck sbc 23 degrees we have both.We are cutting the 9.8 and 10.2 deck bbc's as we speak.And the lsx's are being drawn at the moment.8000.00 is what i will be selling them for that includes the throttle body, fuel regs, water neck and all the fittings and stainless hardware,throttle linkage,two sets of seimen deka injectors,assembled ready to go,wish i could sell it cheaper but there's 100 hours of machine time in one manifold.And the aluminum raw is over 1000 bucks.

Hey Tom,

You're building an engine for my best friend Jake Wallace. Is his engine getting this intake?

[dave96dcm]

OMFG, FTMFW, I really don't like typing acronyms but it is required here.

Already built.

Nice work! Tom,
I already have Jake's engine, need an intake soon though.

[pushrod243]

It's amazing - just when you think the "Bar" can't be raised someone does it.

In this case i think you set the record.

ps - great looking piece I can't wait to see one in person.

[rwhite692]

Tom that is very sweet...you probably know what my first question is gonna be...

....Are you going to be doing a version that will fit the iron eagle tall deck?

[dave96dcm]

Is that 4 seperate pieces? Lower, bottom of upper, top of upper and throttle body?

[TOM NELSON]

both short and tall decks are finished so it will bolt right on your engine

[TOM NELSON]

The main part of the intake is 8 pieces

[TOM NELSON]

Unfortunately.we haven't done any intakes for the ford the demand just hasn't been there for us .But on the Bright side we have a ton of new killer ford combos that i will be loading on the site soon.

[DB Z28]

looks great. Now for the billet turbos housings left and rights matching

[Ummgawa]

How about a unit for a non turbo charged car?

[TOM NELSON]

The intake will work great Na or turbocharged.The throttle responce of this intake is incredible.

Tom that is absolutely bautifull piece! Can you tell us anything of the LSx model ?

[COYBILT]

Tom, I have been following your work for the past year and You really have the best anyone has to offer.

[Scotch]

Hey Tom-

We haven't talked in awhile- I'm glad to see such awesome stuff rolling out of your shop!

If you send me one of those intakes, I promise to run it. LOL!!

Take care Amigo- I hope to see ya at SEMA!

~Scott Parkhurst~

[ArisESQ]

wow. i really want that..

[TOM NELSON]

The lsx model is very different looking but still has the hidden dual fuel per cylinder,built in regs and throttle body.And is all billet.If you are interested i have a list forming for the first 10.

[COYBILT]

Tom you ever thought about building any TT pontiacs?
