Re: Developing a 67-72 LS/Fuel Injection Air intake
Awesome info from all of you, thank you very much! I unfortunately was sick over most of the holiday and didn't get much done. I think the next step is to map out the space I have to work with, and determine how to best utilize it. I'll also build a rough core support in the program too so I can visualize spacing better.
If I wasn't in the process of selling this house I'd take apart my front end and really measure and map out the core support better, but I don't want to dig that deep into the truck at the moment.
It sounds like the approach of moving the MAF down-range of the airbox a bit though is correct, so I'll continue in that vein.
I may make that end a flange of some kind as well so that you can interchange MAF adapters, since some have different bolt patterns.
Additionally, I might not make the part that goes to the airbox a bolt-on piece, and instead have an outlet that connects to the MAF pipe via a flex coupler to give the whole unit some sway. I can't really print a flex piece very well, but using some soft coupling like used in a turbo setup could connect two pieces, and give the system some of the anti-vibration you'd want in it.
Keith thanks for that photo. Might ping you for some input once I have a better end-to-end design in mind.
Cheers all!
