Boy from Oz Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 Just about the only issue I have with LS installations is the appearance of the cold air intakes. I have noticed that 'over-the-radiator' frog-mouth intakes are used in MAFless installations and wondered if they could be adapted to a Zed installation. Because of bonnet (hood) clearance problems it would mean lowering the radiator 75mm and moving it back about 75 mm also. Here is a site to sells the intake but I wonder why it is only suitable for MAFless applications. http://www.capa.com.au/ls1_induction.htm And here is info on MAFless which is popular down here. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MAFless_Tuning I would appreciate any thoughts on this concept.

Bartman Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 I'm using an over-the-radiator solution on my LT1 engine, but instead of lowering the radiator I tilted it back. Someone else recently did some type of over-the-radiator solution on their LSX swap, but I can't remember who it was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
