Intake Elbow with Nitrous port cast into it?

[95zsean]

Anyone use one of these intake elbows? And what do you think of how it's set up?

Its kinda cool, but its not that big of a deal to drill a hole.
Either way for the price thats not bad.

I'm wondering about fitment. It looks like it might hit the radiator hold down, with a nozzle in it. I asked the seller and he said he had "no complaints" but that does not answer the question.

I didnt even think about that, I just drilled a spot for it on the inside of the elbow.

Does yours have a divider inside it? I was thinking of using my 1LE elbow instead of drilling a hole in my polished one. Mine has a divider in it and i think I read not to use one with a divider as it could direct the fuel/NO2 to one side of the intake?

My car is at a shop or else I would of snapped a picture of it for you.
I will betting car back either thursday or friday. I wish I could be of better help but I used one of these elbows

For a single nozzel kit, I would not use one with a divider. I am not sure you could use the ebay unit with a wet nozzel as most of them are a 90* shot from the tip. The hole in that elbow is pointed straight at the TB so the nozzel would be spraying at the side of the elbow instead of into the TB. I drilled and tapped my own elbow. It was not hard at all. Just take your time.

Well it looks like I'll use my 1LE elbow for now and see about cutting the divider out of my polished one later.
thanks

you could cut the tip off of a 90* nozzle to make it work with that elbow, but as others have mentioned you might run into fitment issues.

[95zsean]

I guess that elbow is OUT. So what does everyone else use? I've drilled my 1LE one for now but I dont like how it looks. It's hard to go back to it after a polished one.

im usin my 1le and havent had any trouble but yes it doesnt look anywhere as good as the aluminum ones

I am using a CRT elbow

[n2ocamaro]

Mine is the the Vortec polished. It has the divide, but I run a dual nozzel set-up. I think the Trick-Flow elbow does not have the divider.

[95zsean]

Thanks I'll look at the Trick flow one. Anyone have a trick flow one?

i would just save for the plate kit

Your right!! It's not that much more than a polished elbow.

Which one do you have? The Ebay one or the trick flow? If its the Ebay one can you post some pics of it on the car?
Thanks

Thanks, the pics are VERY helpfull. Thats the issue i was worried about when I seen the elbow.

Nice clean engine bay! I have to clean mine up it set with the hood open most of the winter as i slowly worked on the NO2. What are you doing in the pics , adjusting the rockers?
