Default Dyno results of Marcella sheet metal intake and mods

I posted awhile back on the new sheet metal intake and air induction I installed on the LS7 in my 1967 Corvette convertible. I finally got it back on the dyno to tune in the new combination. Ed Hutchins got everything dialed in and we made some runs...whew, did it sound wicked!! End result was 593 RWHP and 523 ft-lbs RWTRQ. Was hoping to crack the 600 mark, but was pretty happy with the results. There are way too many types of computations for coming up with flywheel numbers from the chassis dyno...I'm guessing it's got to be a solid 675hp at the engine. Bottom line, the car picked up 40+ hp and lost no TRQ with the new intake throttle body and airbridge. I will add the dyno sheet and hopefully a video shortly. Time to cam and intake my 07 Z06

Here is a link with the dyno sheet

and a couple of pics of the mods I made.

Very nice numbers! What a work of art that is. Almost too nice to drive.

That is a work of art - that may be the best looking engine and engine bay I have ever seen.

Awesome Job!!!


Does John make an LS7 manifold that will fit under either a stock hood or a hi-rise supercharger hood? I would really like to have one if he does.

I like the Halltech Super Bee filter. It will flow unrestricted to 900 HP.

Very sweet setup.

I think the filter was good for 100hp gain!!
