Camaro short runner plenum, anyone?

[bszopi]

Well, it started out as part of my plenum project for the 3400, but a few issues arose and I'm back to the drawing table. But, I decided to alter it some and I bet it could work for a large plenum, short runner intake. Some of the wleds need to still be ground down, so don't pay attention to that....

Here's another similar short runner design for the iron head engines. :P

Cool Brad!! Dumb question.....why didn't you use mandrel bends for the outer tubes, and then have the bends come in together at the neck there?
I was thinking of this same type of design when I was working on mine. My thoughts were, that a seperate plenum for each bank of cylinders is suppose to be better for the even fire V6, so if you have 2 plenums that connect to one TB, does that still qualify as 2 plenums??
I'm thinking GM thinks so because of the 3.4 iron head intake design, but maybe they just liked the looks of it....who knows.
I've actually just found a new thing I'm doing with my upper plenums for my next revamp on my intake. Make the throttle body situation much easier to deal with.

I used that tubing (2 3/4" conduit actually) because that's what was lying around the shop.
