Cold intake adapters ahead of radiator - are those from John Kuhn or do you have a source. I'd sure like just the right side one!

Very sharp.....it looks like injection molded plastic (think pricey for small production runs)

Dyno results:
RWHP 335, Torque 350.
So at flywheel HP 385, TQ 402.

Air temp was 90 f, charge temp 105 f. So their's a little more HP waiting to be released but L-Jet is just about at its limit.
Next on the to do list......MAF Conversion.

Dumb question like that... Is there an advantage in taking a 16v over a 32v?
In other word... What's the point of an hybrid?

Sterling, fiberglass. The filters are K/N, the set up is good for 800 CFM.
On the dyno I bypassed the intake hose to determine if the filters were too small for the S/C
The results were no power loss......

Oh forgot to mention the dyno runs were limited to 5500RPM, the S/C belt was slipping. I figure with colder air and belt not slipping, 5.0L is making 410 HP.
