    Disszy for Weber intakes

    HAd to laugh at that description "lightweight manifold" . This intake manifold is quite ok casted, but everything but lightweight. Throttlebody setup looks like it even can be swapped side by side to have the fuelrails and injectors running inside. would fear a bit the synchron movement with...

    But exactly this has been the idea to eliminate. If one relies on the individual idle speed screws of each carb, you would have to overcome the tolerances first at every action, because the levers rest on the idle speed screw and every tension will be taken out of the linkage in idle. When you...

    Gear ratios

    Rob Changing the gearbox from street to track. Interesting to say the least. SLC is a sportscar. Almost noone is driving it like a cruiser on the street. An engine with that power and torque don´t need a street gearing ( besides you plan to attack the roush hour daily, but than i would go to...

    Disszy for Weber intakes

    CHris dont know. location of thermosensor-bungs is different on the ones you show. Dave, where can you see a complete system for 1395 USD ? think their price for a complete system is ( SBF TK3402) 3800 USD There is probably a reason for the feedbacks, i can state no problem with them...

    Dear Chuck i see what you are saying. Don´t think that the 4,5" K&N will make a difference in performance ( unlike the teastrainers, which in fact are not a filter , rather only a debris protection and i´m convinced they would cost me more than 20 HP especially on 6000 RPMS and above) This...

    Disszy for Weber intakes

    Finally got my 8579 fit. Thanks to Randy and Mike. Mike you made me aware that basically what i have has the same shape as an Inlese/Pierce intake ( thats also the reason i bought the procomp because it looked so similar) and if Randy made his one fit with a bit filing here and there, i figured...

    Disszy for Weber intakes

    Thanks Mike Actually it fits quite good in terms if machining and fitting into the V. Defenitely better than my EDELBROCK. But this said, most of them likely are cast in China. Will do the welding solution. Should be non of a bigger deal. TOM

    Disszy for Weber intakes

    Thanks for all the answers Manifold is in correct position, four of the center bolts are fitted to glue on the gaskets for portmatching at that stage. Intake is from PROCOMPELECTRONICS with a vacuum plenum connecting all runners into that plenum. Just grinding of some material of...

    #nr ? But i see also that your intake is much shallower than mine in this area, probably because i´m using an intake with a vacuum plenum and yours is likely not. THanks TOM

    Disszy for Weber intakes

    My actual Distributor will not clear the new Weber intake. it still needs about 10mm to fully sit. So a distributor with a 1/2" taller lower housing would be ideal. My disszy is MSD# 8579 and runs perfect. Called MSD an they say they do have taller ones but not with the small diameter disszy...
