LS -"Dyno Book"
 
Their chief project engineer is Richard Holdener.

This is the same person the created the LS-1, LS-2, LS-x, dyno test book of over 75 dyno tests.

Many items were tested, heads, cams, intakes, superchargers, turbochargers, exhausts, etc.

This book should be aquired by all LS-x users.

Anyone got any more information?

Groovey Jay:

That LS Cross Ram is beautiful. Can you post a link to the right person on how someone can get one for a LS3 427?

I could find 4 g's to buy one.

Does it work with Drive by wire technology? How is the engine turned? What increase in power did you get. I have heard you can get 70-120 hp gain.

You are a lucky man.

Thanks,

Ty

Barry Grant/Demon Carbs went bankrupt in 2011. Apparently, they were purchased by the same company that owns Holley. There's no telling what happened to this intake. I didn't find it on the Demon website.

Trey, Ty, the manifold in the picture may have had Barry Grant's name associated with it, but that is probably just because he was the first to bring one over from England. I have one and it is made by Jenvey, hence their name on the valve covers and brochure in the forefront of the picture.

The manifold uses a cable to actuate the throttle bodies. It is available for for the whole LS range these days, and can be purchased for $3500 from Jenvey's U.S. Distributor, Emerald Performance.

Is this in your camaro? Did you get rid of the PMC manifold? Any pics?

Thanks Matt. Never heard of Jenvey before. Looks like they have some neat stuff though.

Greg, I did get rid of the PMC manifold when I changed the engine over to a 454 based LS7. It is a long story as to why I made all of the changes, but initially I was looking at building a smaller displacement motor, and wanted the throttle response and horsepower gained by an individual throttle body setup.

Currently I have a FAST 102 on the engine, which is mostly just to get the engine running so that I can enjoy driving the car a bit. The Jenvey manifold has a throttle position sensor, but needs to be drilled and tapped with fittings leading to a vacuum distribution block if you want an IAC. I still need to get a hold of those parts. If I had to do it all over again, I might have just bought the harrop. I don't mind tinkering with things, but a dollar vs time comparison would probably net the two about equal in my book. I'm sure I will be happy with the Jenvey after I get it running.
