I'm going to be adding a hardened input shaft, good for 1000hp. That should placate it.

Another box came today. I coupler and a MAF adapter. I ordered the 3 to 5 MAF adapter, they sent me the 3 to 5 MAF adapter with IAT. Oh well, same price and should work fine. This should remove the IAT sensor and use the MAF instead.

Stock inlet. Look at all that restriction.

Now I need to close off the old MAF hole. Once that'* done I will finish polishing the inside, clean up the outside, and put it all back together.

Figured I'd test you.

I know you'd really like the LS1 or N* TB.. Porting an L67 is like putting a small bandaid on a gaping wound. Doesn't quite cover the issue.

I'll get a LS1 or N* later, but this will do. The LS1 MAF is all set to go on, once the throttle body is done, I'll swap it over.

You can find the older N* TB'* for dirt cheap on ebay, it just take a little more work to make them work and they are still 75mm.
