lol let me try again are you wade jarvis?

no im not, the car was picked up at wades place and driven back to the shop to get the manifold the ld9's have been asking for done :p

Jn2, PM euthanasia. He's working with the company thats fabbing up parts to put the M90 and TVS 1900 on an LSJ

they are working on putting the mp90 not the m90, the m90 is a whole nother blower with a different flange and everything, and also one i was looking at, but magnason rates it as a 4l+ blower...the eaton m90 is a 2.5l+ which should do fine on a 2.2

just an FYI, M series and MP series are the exact same. Magnuson takes an eaton blower, and adds different snouts and intakes, and sells it as a MP. The rotors and dimensions of the housing are identical specs to eaton.
M45 = MP45
M62 = MP62
M90 = MP90
M112 = MP112

they are not the same, the flanges are different, i would have to go out and buy a blower just to get the flange made for it, rather than going to autozone and buying a 5$ gasket to have it made :p also the m62 and mp62 are not the same, neither is the mp90 compared to the m90

interesting. the inlet and outlet have different shapes...
the rotors and housing dimensions are still spec. with eaton's blowers though, correct?

the mp62 has 8 ribs, the m62 has 8 ribs, and they looked to be spaced out the same, the i think their rotors r longer, i wouldnt mind working with a mp62....hmmm...that inlet flange is no big deal, could have vulcan make me a adaptor to bolt on a lsj/ls4 tb...only thing is the snout, i dont know how long it is...hmmm...ill look into it further...

that sounds so sick :p

now i got a really crazy idea :p i will have to consult vulcan on this one...

I'd say if we were going to start this blower venture again, a Whipple or Kenne Bell blower approximately 1.3L to 1.6L in size would be quite fun!

Twin screw would be good for these cars.

i was always under the impression that the mp style blowers used the same rotors and a magnuson designed case for a more universal blower for non oem applications. i read an artical on one of the carberated smallblock kits that utilized an mp112, it stated that the mp112 was very simular to the m112 used by ford.

either way, if this intake could be built in an m62 and m90 flavor, it would be cool. this would open up a cheaper alternative to the tvs.

Yeah sorry this got out of topic...but the priority is making a more efficient manifold...cooling is #1priority, if we can cool IATs 2.5-2.7" m62 pullies would be a common ground...zzp got 330whp out of their m62 with laminova cores...imagine a real intercooler core in there...

-Jayson-

or just spend the time and money to port and polish a head, thats still the biggest restriction in the engine and there is far more power per money to be gained there. I want to see an m62 with a 2.5 pulley pushing 15 PSI....

Gabi

^^^that kind of post are starting to **** me off
i think that we all know that the port head will bring more benefits, but we are talking here about intake manifold restrictions not about head restrictions.

please guys lets keep on the topic of the intake manifold

qwikredline

the topic is intake manifolds. the work being done by the OP and Vulcan is immense. The end result is fail. And thats a shame really...poster Jason said its right. Its not that it wont work. its just that the gains are most likely not be there, and someone is spending a lot of time and money to prove that...

thought

I think it's not about gains, it's about temps. THIS WILL HELP WITH TEMPS.

im looking into this more for people who already have a ported head and are running a TVS (IE my goal down the road). Under those CFMs, i would imagine the stock IM becomes a restriction point.

ls1fbody

that's what qwikredline is referring to. There are ways to optimize the maximum efficiency of the stock manifold, and how it cools. People are just choosing to ignore this. The dual pass from GM is often overlooked, extra coolant reservoirs as well as front mount H/E's are extremely helpful. Meth injection, and some other things help as well.

qwikredline

tell me how?I am very interested ....but nothing here explains the "how"... certainly getting rid of the laminova is not a sure fire way to reduce temps....if it was , dont you think it would have been done like 5 - 6 years ago? I think it was Omega 5 ?? who has been trying something like this for some time now and found the obstacles insurmountable. This isnt about finding a fabricator, Vulcan can fabricate some awesome stuff. its about cooling engineering. Thats hard.

ralliartist

hey, how are you? that sounds just like my car.

we still dont know what this manifold will do, but a more cooling efficient manifold in what we're aiming for...currently i believe i have spoken to a few people who want to be testers...including one 2.2 and a few lsjs

if the test one is free, ill be a tester. If not, i have no money to buy one yet
