This is a great project.I'm a huge fan of TPI motors, especially in 73-87's.How did you get your TPI intake so clean? Was it bead blasted?I always thought that the stock runners could not be powder coated because they have epoxy joints. I could be wrong on thisI could never figure out how so many runners get dented. I assume its from people using chain to pull motors out of the cars. It looks like you used the balls you can buy on ebay to remove the dents, how did they work? What are you going to use for a wiring harness & computer? Are you going aftermarket or using GM parts.I'll be keeping an eye on this build.
I used to have a 91 Camaro, it was RPO code B4C police model. It was a traffic enforcement/pursuit car for the police department in the town I grew up in, my mom drove it as a traffic officer for the same department. It was a Z28, RS body kit, 4 wheel disc brakes, 4L60, and TPI 350. That car hauled aces. That thing was stupid fast. It was a great car. We bought shortly after the department retired it. Had it for about 8 years or so after. I drove it for about 6 months while I was putting an engine in my truck. That car was a lot of fun.
Looks good. What color will it be coated? I'm guessing aluminum gray or black or did you have a more colorful option in mind?I have a Vortec block with upgrades, good torque producing cam, aluminum heads and a completely factory big block TBI and the system all together works great. Producing well over 400 ft lbs for my C20 to use as needed. The technology might be old but it was once new and ground breaking and high tech and still works. I can't complain.
Thats a great looking TPI set up.What did the powder coating cost?
I have a pair of headers I dented in a wreck and I want to pull the dents out, I was wondering how you pulled the dents out of your tpi runners.Sent from my SM-G928V using Tapatalk
