George is working on a new lower intake for my 95 engine. Probably will have him fab up a new upper as well. Since I couldn't find a longer snout for the KB, the new intake will bring the blower 2 inches forward to line up with a double crank pulley. :cool:

That's the original cast lower in the background.

Pretty, but how does the air get in?:D

The air enters via a patented method of reverse osmosis. :icon_mrgreen:

Top secret spy photos ( note the reverse osmosis air inlet has been done away with )

Pic from today's visit to Rockwall. We came up with a plan for a one-off intake to match the lower.
Should be pretty cool when it's done. :cool:

Hey Dennis,
Bet I could fit some bungs for nitrous in the intake. You could just kinda use it as an intercooler. Say like a 300 shot:evil

Oh my that is so cool Dennis. That is some very nice work right there.

Yep - works similar to the Gen II system. A line goes to the lower intake and sense boost/vacuum. You can see it in the third picture.

No doubt one of the nicest set ups on the road for a Gen 1 and I am sure Mr. Glenn will not disapoint with with the rest of the truck

Thats a one off made by George for Gen 1s
I heard that it took a ton of time and cost more $$$

I should have made a jig off of that intake because I've had a couple of people interested in getting one. Dennis said that he wont be putting it in for awhile so maybe if there is enough interest I could build a jig.
( In between all the other stuff I have going on )

Are people able to just stop by and BS? I'm right across the lake in Rowlett and wouldn't mind checking out some of the stuff you build.

hotrodsbygeorge
11-18-2007, 07:53 PM
Yes stop on by... pretty much anytime. Probably best to call first since I'm the only one here and have to run parts etc. 972-771-6460 We'll swap lies.

Hey Doug, I built a fabricated trans pan for Joe's 55 because no one makes a ( good looking ) stock depth pan for a 4L80E and lord knows that he doesn't need stuff hanging down any farther than it has to. Anyway I want to post a pic. ( if I can ever get my camera back from my daughter ) That isn't breaking any rules here is it ?
:confused:
