I just saw a build thread with one of these new Holley manifolds on it. Lemme go look for it.

Double047 has his build thread in the projects gallery, the "Silver Sleeper". Here's a link to it, post #202 has pics of the Holley manifold, and it looks like a really good fit to me. https://www.performancetrucks.net/fo...-479421/page6/

What do you think of this intake for a turbo set up roger? I get different answers from people saying that it will rob the bottom end but then on the other hand that it will be good for building boost with the longer runners.

Long runners are good for torque. Always have been. Look under the hood of most late model minivans, suv's, whatever. You'll usually see a plastic manifold with long runners, to a plenum.

If you opened up a stock truck manifold, you'd find that it has long runners inside it.

Yeah exactly what I was thinking. For the price, I may well be ditching my LS3 intake in favor of this setup.

If nothing else, it would certainly look better, IMHO.

I believe it would perform better as well, but there hasn't been any real world testing yet that I've seen.

Might as well be the guinea pig! This would look pretty good powdercoated gloss black too...
