back together and ready to try again
Well, my shop finally got my engine back together.
Was having blow by probs so I had engine broke down
and sure enough one cylinder's rings did not seat[:@]
Tuner thought it was nothing but just plain old bad luck on that hole
Got everything honed out and re-ringed and made
some changes while I was at it.
Installed RHS 200 heads with beehive springs, 3 angle valve job and stage 1 porting.
Installed Super Victor EFI intake with spyder elbow.
and dropped compression from 10.2 to 9.5 with 64cc heads
also had them weld in an oil return fitting in the pan for the twin turbos
Let you guys know how it dynos out N/A here at the end of next week.
Also installing the AEM ECM computer at same time and
swapping out to speed density set-up, so no MAF's to get in the way now.

Looks nice!!! How much was the intake set-up? Would it work well on a blower car?

RE: back together and ready to try again
The spyder intake with elbow and fuel rails cost $750.
The Edlebrock Super Victor EFI intake ( same thing ) ...... $355 at summit
Power elbows are like $130
Edlebrock fuel rails for that intake are $80 summit
thats about $200 cheaper than the Coast High Spyder for exact same thing.
I will sell my Trickflow intake and only be about $150 for the swap.
Yes they are GREAT for boost.
It's nothing but an Edlebrock single plane Super Victor intake with injector ports.

RE: back together and ready to try again
Web page info says the power elbow puts throttle body
in "stock location", so hood clearance should be about the same
with little better clearnace towards the front.
You also have a ton of options like custom elbows or
those 4 barrle TB's that look like a carb and use carb boost hat.
and of course Edlebrock is always good stuff as far as fitment
and port/gasket alignment.

Nice, you have a link for the elbow. I can't seem to find it on Summit's site
Do you know if the flow is better then the pro products I run now. Shorter runners so i would think so.
