Holley hi ram for ls engines

[Eddie Newlin]

I'm trying to build a 5th gen COPO Camaro. Anyone know how to build the intake for this or know how I can source one? I'm building in 1/25th. Also if anyone has suggestions on sourcing or building some of the other parts I'd appreciate it.

Welcome to the best place online for model cars Eddie!

I think scratchbuilding that cool intake will be the only way unfortunately the intake tubes and flanges would be easy, the top plenum would take some time to get all of the compound curves right, but it could be done. I think a substrate like sign foam, Renshape, or Balsafoam( http://balsafoam.com/ ) would be the way to go...

Thanks fellas. I'll dig through the parts box, I should have a base in there. Thanks Jeff for the better reference pic

if you google "holley ls tunnel ram" about 3/4 of the way down the page is a partially dimensioned drawing of that manifold with the 2 four barrel top. i'm certain i have seen the f.i. top drawing floating around.

I thought about using the Holley for one of my builds but copped out for the attached. I thought about using a large piece of tubing in the center sandwiched between two smaller pieces to get the rounded look. Add some flat pieces to bridge the gaps and then use filler. Good luck on whatever you try. Keep us updated.
