Default Granatelli CIA questions help

Hi all

I am nearing the finish of my EFI cleveland build and have a few questions, but first i will explain what i have done

I have a 1981 Mitsubishi Sigma its a small RWD 4cyl sedan, anyhow i have swapped out the 4 banger for a 302 cleveland

Recently i have converted it to EFI using a tunnel ram lower a custom plenum with and a 2001 mustang cobra twin blade throttle body.
Now i was looking on the net for a suitable intake pipe and came across this Granatelli unit with built in nitrous and thought IF it fits it will be perfect

So this is a question for those who own or have access to one of these pipes, I need to know a few dimensions so i can work out if it will fit, or how much i will need to mod it to fit

I need to know the measurement from the throttle body end forward to the outer part of the bend thats near the radiator (if you understand what i mean) and also total length


Thanks in Advance... Mick

WAAAAAAYYYYY over priced IMO. You could just have an intake tube fabbed up and buy a separate N2O kit for way less than that!

its only 1k landed at my door, thats pretty cheap i think

by the time I buy the alloy, stuff around designing and cutting, pay a welder $55 an hour to weld it, buy a k&n filter then the n20 kit and mod it to fit, I would have spent the same if not more for an ugly welded up CIA that had no r&d and might not work

but thanks for the input

You can buy oval pipe that will bolt right up. Just make one out of cardboard first to figure out where the bend needs to be. Then all you need is a silicone piece and a filter. A N2O kit can be had for ridiculously cheap these days as well. I've bought TiG welded custom schedule 10 stainless headers for less than they want for that...
