Help Me Choose A Manifold FOR MY 355CI

[VLDavo]

go the COME for ya 355 they spent massive amount of money testing that thing and it seams it do very well..

dont know why but i just dont like the trick shift job

 

[RVK 355]

Why go with the COME if his after down low and instant power when the come is the complete opposite to that

come is good for out rite powe and top end performance

lol i didnt see that little bit on the bottem of his last post

the trick shift performance one is really good, i have been in a few of there cars that have the manifold and the difference they make is unbelievible. im not sure about the others i just know about the trick shift one.give scott a call at trick shift performance(9357-6999) and they will give you all the dteails you need to know.

Have you been in a car with the trickshift that didn't have the tune that they like to put in with it?, I think 90% of the gain on the trickshift package is not the manifold

[Thanks guys few different views,all very much appreciate and taken into account,into the new year FEB /MARCH i will finally make my decision

There is a V8 355 215i on st commodores that runs 175rwkw with no head work running stock efi manifold so if im around 185rwkw before the manifold id be happy,all will be known in the upcoming months on enhanced automotives dyno.

Can anyone lead me into the direction of what parts i need to order to run similar setup to preadator with the dp manifold tho i want to keep my injection setup run 42lb injectors.

In ur opinion guys what is very similar to the twin throttle vn ss group A Manifold.

Is this what i want?

This is a genuine msd 4 barrell 1000cfm throttle body. ideal to convert carby to injection or to run a high rise manifold on your efi holden/ford. comes with throttle position switch and idle air control valve.
Price: $950.00

same as the carby single plane manifold with efi holes drilled in the accomodate injectors. these single plane manifold make best power from 4000-8000rpm. ideally used with a msd 4 barrell throttle body to create the old school muscle look but still retain efi.
Price: $1045.00

Dude just get the torque power dual plane or high rise even better and go for 230 rwkw+. You can make 230 on a 304 with one let alone a stroker. The Harrop might show you the same numbers on the top end but it wont be as good in the mid range where it counts on street car

Brad,

42lb injectors are way to big for your application these will support up to and slightly abover 400rwkw, the best injector choice u can go is vt ls1 or vx ls1 from 260 to 300+ rwkw.

as for manifold, go with what i spoke to u a while ago, forget alloy manifolds as IAT's go through the roof.

As for the harrop manifold, ive done a few 304's with nothing above 9.5:1 cr, mild head work and running a solid camshaft and they all net around 230rwkw at 6700rpm.

And to others, i will gladly put my hand up, and say ive actually removed one of those walker manifolds, as it made worse power and torque, than the standard banana manifold, and was a manifold nothing more than the factory one cut down, and a top plenium made.

one way to control the excessive heat with alloy manifolds is to have em coated with a ceramic heat coating similar to what they use on headers, it gives a nice chrome like look and helps keep those intake temps down.

the problem with the walker manifold could be that the runners are probably 6-8" to short, no bellmouth style entry into the runners doesn't help either. i think the manifold that foam is building is a much better idea (from a factory banana's manifold) if he ever finishes it:thumbsup: (hint foam:whistling)
