stock ls3 intake valves are hollow? didn't realize something had to be ferrea in order for it to be hollow.....

8 grams lighter is what I was told.

just curious... i wonder how one of these engines would do with a truck intake - consider it flows better on the bottom end with a little sacrifice up top.

With my mods being this IM, a Vararam, ARH LT's, HF Cats, X-Pipe, from an advertisers perspective I should be picking up:

(RWHP)
25 -30 Vararam

16 FAST IM

32 ARH LT's, HF Cats and X-pipe

Total 73 RWHP (conservative)

My Mainline dyno initial dyno with bolts and no tune put down an average of about 295RWHP.

With a tune I am now putting down 315RWHP

So... where are these gains that I am supposed to see? I paid a lot of money to get parts and power. I expect it.

I'm have a 2SS/RS L99

You are giving the car too much air but no fuel and no (camshaft, cylinder heads)

The intake now is giving the cylinder heads too much air than it's can take because of it's small bore

You should Match your parts.

I'm waiting for mine to arrive Wich is my new project is:
1. Vengeance Racing VVT Delete Kit.
2. 1 x Comp Cams Hi Tech 5/16th Chromemoly Pushrods (7.400).
3. Fully CNC Ported LS3/L92 Heads.
4. FAST LSXR 102mm Intake Manifold .
5. FAST Precision Flow Fuel Injectors(39 lb/hr).
6. LGmotorsports G6x3 camshaft.
7. MTI Racing / Melling High-Volume LSX Oil Pump.
8. Nick Williams 102mm ported Throttle Body.

And I'll see if it's not so good,.

Is that cam big? If not I would think the FAST is a little much for stock cubed NA LS3

Man some terrible shit must have happened when I was not around in this "full story" I keep hearing about.

lol.

as hard as it is for you to believe, you were not with the man 24/7.

are you really going to turn this into another "why did dan fire ed hutchings?" thread? I strongly dislike your hero. get over it.

WheelmanSS · 05-24-2010, 11:27 PM

Holy crap, can you bench racing idiots stop blathering all over the place. Good God, so much nonsense on this forum.

To the thread starter - again, mind saying why the Halltech is a "worse" intake? Some facts would be nice for a change.

Again, more misinformation and thread derailing on this forum. So dissappointing.
