12.5" X 22" X 3.5" Overall length 30", 3" inlet/outlet, 1142 CFM flow rate. I may trade it in for the larger one that is 4.5" wide

Aeromotive A1000 installed in the G8 gas tank.

A what horsepower level have found that there are gains from a manifold and elbow change like that with a centrifugal?

I think I read that there was no real gain with the NW 102mm throttle body until about 700-800rwhp, but I dont know for certain about the manifold and elbow. Since I like to see things with my own eyes, I'll find out if there any gains when I install the manifold, elbow and throttle body. Thats why I put it under phase 3 of my build, instead of installing them now so a comarison can be made against the stock manifold and throttle body. I also plan on adding a 102mm MAF w/ LS3 card, and intercooler piping on the cold side to match the diameter of them both.

The reason you go to a carb style manifold with big FI is for equal cylinder distribution, not for power.

I hope to hit the dyno Wednesday or Thursday. Waiting on my coil pack relocation kit from Pace so I can install my Pontiac valve covers.

Looks like it is going to be a badass project. Let us know if there is anything else we can help you out with on the suspension/chassis.

I'm looking to purchase the following items soon: BMR lower control arms, toe rods, front/rear sway bars, total suspension bushing kit. Hopefully one of the vendors on the forums have some deals soon.
