Graham,

Any change in plenum volume from the original? Also, obviously going w single blade TB. What were the thoughts on that?

That plenum looks exactly like the plenum on the prototype Gen II LT5.

Look at the pics in this thread. Looks identical.

Its the same engine


Looks like the injector is a straighter shot to the valve too



Big question....were these heads one off weld ups for the change...or is there a casting out there somewhere?

Plenum volume similar, it was intended to be electronic throttle, hence one blade.

Prototype tooling existed, no weld up, as to any more
