sounds like fun!! did you buy the msd distributor harness?? i have an extra msd 6a box with the harness all attached i could of sold ya unless you like the new stuff.
lol Post up some pictures.
No, didn't buy the harness. I'm wondering if I should have though. I'll know when the IGN box gets here, if I"ll buy one or not.
Ha, sorry, maybe we could have worked out a deal...but I wanted to try the new digital 6AL box.

I know what it is it just seems that if you do that you would still have a difference between the the amount of air in the front and back end. More air is always good but it just seems like a much bigger spacer. Your air will still travel fast through the intake filter but once it hits the larger plenum chamber will slow down in a larger area and then speed up again down the runners. Now it will have to work harder to slow down and speed up again becuase of more internal area. I just think if someone developed a better internally bored intake plenum it would be more productive
Ok, sorry to jump the gun.
You brought up a valid point.
Much like a river, the air will slow down as it's space expands, and then speed up as the space narrows. I think it's called the Ventrui effect?
But I think that the work required to slow down and speed up the air is offset by the extra air flowing through the intake. Much like how a SC consumes HP from the engine to make it work, but generates so much HP that it's still produces a positive outcome.
Do they work? IDK, the guys here who have one seem to like them, and they mostly put them on during a rebuild. And the guys here who don't have one are wondering if they work. For $275, I thought I'd test it. I was already going to be in there for the MPFI upgrade, so it won't take any extra work.
As for the better enginered intake? +1
I think that there is a marine intake available, but it's $$$ and I am cheap

Nice! I actually installed the VMAX on my Tahoe. I put in a 383 and figured it needed to breathe better since the damn injectors are in the manifold. I did run into a big issue... The fuel lines will run right into the side of the distributor on the right side. It will prevent you from plugging the wires back in. I had to get a tubing bender to curve the lines out. The wires will then slip under the lines and it will work. HOWEVER, the fuel lines will be stretched out from the fuel filter all the way up to the back of the motor. You'll have to get a flexible line installed to relive the pressure of them being pulled in that direction.
I contacted Taylor and they didn't understand what I was talking about. Turns out they bought out the company that developed this spacer and had no pics of the final installation so they have no idea.
Hey thanks for that heads up!!!
When I'm ready for install, I'll have the Mech have some fuel line parts on standby...haha..
Seriously, thanks.
gotta love new stuff!!
