Morrison Dog Bone Throttle Body
Did anyone see this on Marc Haibecks Website?
http://zr1specialist.com/HAT%20Web/f...s/DCP_1509.JPG We encountered this legendary throttle body on the Morrison Number 94 endurance racing car. We were preparing the car for the 2014 vintage racing season. As the name so aptly describes, the section between the OE throttle plates has been removed and a one piece throttle plate has been installed.

Re: Morrison Dog Bone Throttle Body
Will be curious to see if my air horn mod nets any HP.....
*AC Bump removed completely *Alt hump reduced *Center gap for airhorn screw reduced and welded in to reduce turbulence

Re: Morrison Dog Bone Throttle Body
My guess is that it won't. As you know, I have 63mm TB on my 5.7. A restriction in the airflow will show up as a drop in MAP at WOT as RPM goes up. With the dyno runs I have done, I don't see that happening, not only w stock air horn, but with air bridge and cleaner assembly attached.

Re: Morrison Dog Bone Throttle Body
What is the MAP Reading at WOT?

Re: Morrison Dog Bone Throttle Body
Mercruiser(Scott Skinner) found the Air Horn to be a restriction in actual testing; Marc seemed to think the same. We will see

Re: Morrison Dog Bone Throttle Body
I would have to go back and ask, they did progressive testing on an engine starting minor mods and documenting each change and variance. I was surprised when he mentioned cleaning up the airhorn was worth about 5hp.
