im very intrerested in this too, its a great option and i cant remember where but someone posted up where to buy the elbow to fit on top and put a normally facing TB on it... what kind of injectors would you need? i assume car injectors. also, would you need to change fuel rails, if so, what is there to do about the return style fuel delivery that came with our trucks opposed to the returnless that most everyone else has (i dont know when it switched over)

scream, i plan on doing this swap sometime over the winter. i intend on using the 90 degree bend with a 85mm or 90mm throttle body. i'm probably going to have a custom bracket made to accept the cable. it's all talk but thats my plans.

Maybe I'm just missing something, but I don't see where it says in any of that what style injectors the manifold will take. Will I still be able to use the Multec II truck injectors, or do you have to switch over to the F-car stuff?

It uses the car injectors. I have researched and found out cause we'll probably do the setup on the Wood Hauler's 408 very soon. The Carb hat was the only thing I was still looking for. But if you wanted to run speed density couldn't you just use a carb style air cleaner and plumb an IAT sensor in it? Just a thought.
