New Intake on the 426 Build...

[MiHiHemi]

These things are pretty dang expensive but what the heck...you only live once right?

Should be a nice addition to the new 426 build with F1 Procharger (polished head unit).

Wow! Looking forward to more posts and dyno numbers.

Until I can pony up for trans improvements, we’re trying to save the HP70 as long as possible and stay conservative on boost. Engine builder is hinting at 700 wheel for now?

 

[FlyByU]

Tell him to hint up to about 1100

That comes later. No drag radials for now. Tires are now slippers.

Pretty interesting how it blows up through the intercooler then back down into the heads.

Beautiful intake...
Terrifying price...

They're the only one marketing an intake though, I think, so more power to them. This thing has been in the works for like 3 years... can't wait to see some TT BUILDS!!!

Yep, I had to swallow hard but in thinking about it, there’s a lot of engineering with the intercooler and CNC work. Guess I’ll be one of the first here in CO to R&D this thing

That F1 will put it to work! Are you working with a shop in your area? The Jeep SRT8 in the background of your pic had me thinking of another guy in CO with a Jeep, built motor, crank driven Procharger... crazy build.

Glenn Rains in Littleton. Have to use Glenn, he participated partially in the design of this intake He also built my N/A stroker.

The pic. is from another shop. Intake is in and bottom end done but waiting on a set of Hellcat heads for the new intake to bolt up to for now. I like how the F1 will blow directly into the T.B. now. Just need a remote water to air intercooler for the liquid closed loop from the intake. Glenn said that intake will take up to 2000HP.

🤔. You lost me with the “ need a remote water to air intercooler”. Do you mean a heat exchanger? Are you going to incorporate a ice box into this system?

This is where the Chevy LS envy sets in. They have what 6 or 7 off the shelf intakes

Paging Holley!!!

Killer setup. What F1 unit? X?

I guess if money is no object then ok. Even if you picked up 50hp from it that is still more then $1000 per 10hp.

OK, not for the faint of heart for sure. The thrill of the hunt for me Like Boris mentioned, not much to choose from for us. I’m too old and (still) reckless not to take a few leaps for the sake of being a test mule. This whole engine build will be more than I need (or can use) anyway but so what...it’ll put a smile on my face.

Biggest hurdle was just finding an intake that will gulp enough air. I guess one could just throw on a Holley Hi-ram but that’s no fun.

Yep, or radiator or.... Too many definitions to remember these days but you get it No ice box for me, not quite that hardcore but one is in the works for this setup.

Thought hard about the X but decided the A would be enough. No point in getting greedy

Says the man with the absolutely over the top manifold
That is a great looking intake!

Lol, given the cost of these things, at least I won’t see many around at car shows & club cruises this summer.
