Hi Gents

Do any of you have or are thinking of putting a Chevy LS series engine in an Ultima?

The reason for asking is that I have an LS6 from a race Mosler that is fitted with some rather lovely Kinsler throttle bodies. I'm told they are worth around 15% power gains over the stock plastic inlet manifold. You can imagine my dismay when I found I had insufficient clearance under the bonnet of my front engined race TVR to accomodate the Kinslers and had to revert to the plastic manifold!

I also have a beautifully made painted carbon fibre Mosler air box with huge panel air filter which would be an easy fit for the Ultima given the similarities in the shape of the two cars.

If of interest I will stick an advert in the classifieds - I just wanted to gauge whether any of you run this engine before I do.

Cheers

Andy

Hi guy

Very well thanks. Will be even better once I get the LS2 installation complete in the Sagaris racer. You still have the Ultima I take it?

Cheers
