Sweet! It looks like you have got a pretty good handle on solidworks already! Are you going to have it cast?

yeah right, I'm still building stick figures. This is manifold that is being made for our LSX engine project By Kinsler. It is pretty cool. I have some rough cast pics but they look pretty rough. I should have the real deal in about 3-4weeks. It is supposed to be in the Procharger booth @ SEMA this year. It is one wild engine.

Gentlemen!

Do not look at this manifold! I saw it at Columbus Good Guys in the Kinsler booth and for some strange reason I said "I gotta have it!". It just came out! I couldn't help it!! It was as if that damn intake had me mesmerized. In person it is the coolest damn thing on the planet!

It's taken me about 2 years to get past stick figures.

Do you know very much about the design? I'm trying to find out what effect the bell tubes have on the intake flow. The intake I have is similar (below), but I don't have the bells.



I would like to something like this (without the turbos):



And then run the tube inlets to the grill for fresh air, but I don't know how much the bells effect the intake.

In a naturally aspirated engine they move the torque up or down depending in the length.

In a boost application the do nothing.
