We would have to look at the rule book on that one. But as it turns out Dave wants to run it on a 383 street engine so the scrutineers rules dont apply :3dSMILE:Quote:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peltier_cooling theres a wikipedia article to give you a general overview of what it is... from there you can dig deeper..... their most common application right now is in computers to bring processors down below freezing tempatures......no one makes one for automotive application but i've been looking into finding out how one is made to possibly make my own.... to cool intake charge.... you can find small blocks for computer use but they only would cover a 3"x3" surface area........ i'm looking into makeing one that would fit around the carb base, and have water passeges on the top side with lines that could be tapped into the heater hose connections
TA, I will have a looksee and think about it, what about interuption to air flow ?
The guy wants a manifold for a "warmed over" engine in the first post. The Brodix is rated for 4,000 to 8500 RPM..... Probably not the rpm range he would be looking for.....Quote:

dave if i had your money i would buy one and try it out i seen that intake well over four years ago and was thinking at the time it was a must have on a small block just have not seen any on the street .i was think it would do a fine job on a 383/400
I really like the design on it, Pat. Not sure if that is just because it is unique or because it looks like it should work!!!! Did a bit more research on it today in a few places on the net. Most users seem quite pleased with the performance, and a few said it does great on the low end, and works great up to about 7200. Haven't seen any dyno results with it, but might just have to give one a try. Been looking for an excuse to build a cowl induction hood anyhow!!!!!:LOL: :LOL:
dave my feeling on this intake is it may work very good but it is not a eldelbrock or dart weiand/ holley so it may not get the press like the big boys
Maybe you're right. This would be going on the Camaro that I'm building for my girlfriend. We'll chassis dyno the car for tuning puposes when we are done building. The engine will be a 383 so I'm certain that there is enough performance history on it that we would be able to tell if it works.
But yeah, If one of the majors didn't build it you probably won't hear a lot about it until the manufacturer contributes enough ad money to the appropriate hot rod rags.... Sad but true, isn't it????
As for the Maro, I'm still totally at a loss as to the camshaft. 10.0 CR, this intake, stepped equal length headers (1 3/4, 1 5/8?). I want to run a solid roller, if it was a Ford Windsor I would say around 290 duration and 540 lift, what do these chebbies like????
this is a stick car ?or auto?
Stick, I hope!!!! I'm 99.9% certain that I have here talked into a 5 speed, if not, I guess she just won't like the car... I can't stand the thought of being shiftless!!!! So yeah, it's gonna be a 5 speed.....:LOL: :LOL: :LOL:
Nice soft cutch ? The fairer sex dont like it when they have to arm wrestle the pedal to the floor.
soild roller lunati 50101. 112cl 298/298 526/526 rpm 3200/7000 or crower00427. cl 112 290/296 585/597 rpm 3250/7500 or isky rr-575. cl 108 284/284 .576/.576 rpm2600/6500 this cam would work good i think with a5 speed?? but then i just like looking at cam books:whacked:
