WTF

[Knyghtmare]

lmao I saw that on thirdgen.org a while back. Thats hilarious.

looks like that would be quite a torker type manifold with those long narrow runners...he could have put a little more effort into making that a better looking and probably better working manifold had he removed the top plate completely, put a dividier (if it doesn't have one, do they? b/w left/right banks?) and welded back on a decent top plate with a more centrally placed carb plate.

That's redneck/mullet engineering at it's finest though :thumbsup

That's REALLY F"N FUNNY!!!!!!! HAAHAHAHAHAHAHAH those old timers really crack me up!! I swear you'd have to pry their carbs from their cold dead hands!!

[BadAzzGTA89]

No tpi's plenum has no dividier it's all hollow

I've got a Plastic Welder here at work, your more than welcome to use it!....Even got a Sawzall to cut a hole in the hood. Think I've got a nice 850DP I'd let you use (I'll have to look)......Oh Man, what a cool project for this weekend......:thumbsup

[BAD LS1]

Yeah might as well take a few steps forward in the name of performance and lose all that EFI crap and get carbed!!!:goof

Aint nothing like turning the fire hose loose to 5 of the 8 cylinders!!!!

:thumbsup

[PB86MCSS]

I wanna know if/how that thing actually worked on the guys truck. :eek:

Guess he got a TPI motor and didn't like the new fangled EFI and was too cheap to get an actual carbed intake...yikes!

Don't mix :party: with modifying!

[FiErO-5spd]

Jeez if that's possible maybe i can make my TBI manifold into something sweet like that lol

[SMS 1]

Maybe this is one of those "power secrets" that crossed over from the imports to the V8's? I mean those guys are always trying new ways to find power right?:durr

[Syclone0044]

'Tis true!! MotoMan definitely could not say that this guy was unwilling to "Think OUTSIDE the Box"!!!! :thumbsup

[TransAm12sec]

Wouldn't puddles of fuel just sit at the bottom of the plenum?

[SMS 1]

You would think that it would look like a lake in there with that nice soft turn into the runners:nutkick
