Hi guys i own a vs berlina hsv enhanced 5.0 litre with cold air intake, 2 1/2 inch redback sports system exhaust, fully rebuilt box with heavy dutie clutches, corvette servo, stage 2 shift kit and a re-tensioned irs lsd diff with 3.9's. just wondering what engine package's would be best to work with this system?:) :confused: i've been told to get my bottom end freshened up and go with an off the shelf crow cams small stroker kit. Any ideas or has anybody know of a similiar car with the same setup? thanks guys!!

well correct me if im wrong but i've heard that the stock intake manifold or Tb's arent that good for the air flow. in my opinion i would go for a set of twin throttle's and then after that begin with a stroker. [PSI-EFI]:o

ey, ye, i reckon a set of grp a twin trottles would be mad, but how about the COME racing ones. it has one big pipe for the intake but if you take it off it has 2 TB's. just while were on the subject, have you or any of you mates got welding skills, maybe you could make your own in a custom shape that you like. that was just a thought. well good luck.

BTW, ill try and search or find a cheap set for you.:D

here are sum pics of the COME ones. man, i can just imagine these pics been your motor in the future. COME also does stroker kits which is a benefit for you because your after the TB.

Ebay's my bes mate lol! i looked at that manifold on ebay, its Fugly, it would do the job but i'd heaps prefer a come racing one. If i find a cheap stock one i might play around with it and see how i can modifie it. The hard part is finding the time and the money to do it all.lol
