Ok, so here's a tease.. It's not finished yet..

It is an assembley file that I had some tweaking done to..

Just to look at as a preview.....!!!

Cheers,

Wow, very cool.

Individual throttle bodies?

I'm assuming the two rectangular gray "boxes" on each side are the IC's?

IcemanG17

Hmm.....dual injectors per cylinder?

hacker-pschorr

I was wondering the same thing. With 90+ pound injectors available, is there really a need for two?

Or a secondary for methanol injection?

Thanks H-P,

Individual runners, one TB, a big oval shaped unit that flows 1400+ CFM... Yes, the gray boxes are the AWIC's..

Brian, yes, dual injector per cyl... Better fuel atomization with smaller injectors, one per intake valve, and upgradable as well..

Keep in mind, this is going to be used with a Motec, dual injectors is a non issue to control...

blau928

The dual injetor setup is for low rpm granularity, allowing better fuel atomization by the ability of the injector to operate at low pressure, and spray finer mists at the lower pressure in the fuel rail..

Of course, it also allows unpgades to say dual 42# injectors which can flow a great deal of fuel..

What kind of SCer? Something is goofy on the left side of the picture. The blue part is elevated from the rest of the intake, but on the right side, it touches... I'm sure it's just a mistake.

Uhhhhhh ok. I get to play stupid....I'm good at it.

What am I looking at? Does this replace the intake? Seems like it does. How come eveything is at 90 degrees to everything else? Why doesn't this have any rounded/smoothed runers for flow?

I have little ego so don't worry about offending.

I probably should allow Richard to answer that one, but you may want to reference these older threads to see the first incarnation of this project:

Those gray boxes in the posted assembly contain laminova cooling cores. They use laminar flow principles and massive amounts of very tiny fins to maximize surface area and heat transfer. They are extremely efficient at removing heat from a charge. At the same time, the fins will "straiten" the air into a very smooth charge. Because the cores will distribute and straiten the air inside the cooler, the feed/distribution of air above the coolers isnt as critical as a typical design. Here is a picture stolen from one of Richards earlier threads showing the cores.

Very interesting!

Thanks Hans.

Hi Andrew,

That's the drawing that needs further work. The previous CAD person drew it inside out, and my engineer is now correcting the mistake. In th final work up, the blue piece is a cover that directs the flow of aiir through the coolers, and it all lines up to be bolted together. There will be no welding, as I wanted it to be sealed with O rings as it is all machined from billet 6061 T6 Alu.

Cheers,

Thanks Hans,

Saves me a bit of typing..!!!

Text from Laminova:

Laminova heat exchangers are especially designed for intercoolers in turbo and super-charged petrol and diesel engines. The heat exchangers are compact, easy to install and more efficient than conventional coolers. The Laminova system utilizes liquid as coolant. Laminova heat exchanger systems have a unique designed core for intercooler applications. The air-to-liquid system gives increased efficiency compared to an air-to-air system. With the air-to-liquid system you will get cold air right from the start.

The most efficient way is to integrate the cooler cores into the inlet manifold. This gives a very compact and light system. The unit contains a small volume of air, which gives better torque, response and performance compared to those of conventional coolers.

Blower bolts up underneath?

cool looking stuff!

Boy oh boy waiting on my order I have an 86 S/C and sure could use it.
