I've seen Lingenfelter and Haibeck cars with custom lettering on their intake manifold, and want to do something similar on mine. Anybody got any recommendations on where to go to get something like that? Thinking something along the lines of: 391 CID 600HP
Alternatively, might consider a custom throttle body plate, isn't there someone that does those for the LT5? |

A good sign shop should be able to make up some lettering for you. Just stick on and remove the backing.

I agree, we need something to special to call it. Unfortunately the "Polatsidis 391" just doesn't fall trippingly off the tongue.

Use Greek numerals for 391.

The lettering that Marc uses on his engines ("Haibeck 350 510 HP") are stick on letters. You might give him a call and find out where he gets them. --Bob
