  • Anyone do millwork?

    Who can I work with for mill work?

    I need some mill work on an aluminum flat bar to adapt this intake to an LS1 motor.




    The plates will end up with these dimensions:

    Hmm, I might have to hit up a machine shop for this.

          Thanks guys! Normally I could do that work, but my machine is down, getting some updates, not sure when I can get back to it to get it running again.

          Who's the maker on that intake? that's a tough adapter to be honest and probably pretty expensive. (not sure what that intake is worth vs. what the adapters cost.... )

            It's a Hogan's sheetmetal intake for a blower on "c" Yates heads. I bought it from the classifieds
            here on the board.

            I wanted to get an intake for an LS1 and blower, but they are still difficult to get into.
            This is a lower cost starting point and I need to adapt it to LS1 heads.
            So, I need to reverse the intake port direction, change the port from square to cathedral,
            and angle it down to mount squarely on the heads

            I was hoping not to cut it, so I can get out of it if it just won't work like this.
            So, I need to just make an adapter plate made to make all the adaptations.
            The more I think about it, I might need more thickness to get the port to mate up reasonably.

            I'll be starting from aluminum bar stock. First thing, is to get a wedge on the plates.
            I'll be porting the adapter myself.
