I saw the guy on ebay that offers a polished upper intake plenum that has also been ported, but he wants 425.00 after an exchange of your original intake plenum. I saw one that was sold a long time ago on ebay for like 250.00 and that was a steal. Any ideas of another place I could pick one up and I am a lazy bum so no I am not doing it myself. I am also more interested in the bling factor than actual hp gains.

 

I believe that REM sells ported upper plenums and throttle bodies, but I don't think they are extrude honed. You may want to do a search on this. I've heard that there are not really very signifigant (if any) power gains with a ported plenum. I could be wrong though

 

 

what's something like that look on a truck?

it looks nice.
thanks, shane

 

Ported plenums DO give a boost in power when done correctly. Average H.P. on the dyno is 4-6 and torque is about 11 ft lbs.This is on a 4 lb pullied truck with cold air filter. BTW, that $425 includes a fully ported inside AND show polish outer! Polish alone is $250.Thats a deal.

 

Mondo should know. He's very close to the person that does them.

I have one of those polished upper plenums in stock. I'll let it go very cheap. Anyone can E-Mail me at micronp450@aol.com

Thanks

 

Will you answer my e-mails?

 

In case you didn't notice his AOL email address (why...when you have teamjdm.com?), I bet it's packed full of spam and the "good" emails are buried deep inside.

 

I sent you an email Justin.

 

anyone got any pics of that polished plenium on the motor of an L? thanks, Shane

 

how would you even polish an entire plenum anyway?

 

 

Polished upper intake plenum - $65.00 at the local metal finishing shop in Phoenix that does all of the local hot rods and low riders...suffice it to say that his work is second to none.
