Message	:is someone going to desing a plenum that help more w/ top end. If i'm correct to current plenum on a Z is set up for troque. How about one w/ shorter runners that would help top, easier to work around and just is looks neater. If you can wait roughly 1 year, I'm 100% sure I'll have a physical prototype of both a single throttle body and a significantly modified stock plenum. I am currently 99% complete on a performance product that will be unveiled in the next 4 weeks (or less). I am currently 35%-45% complete on a second performance product that should be completed in the next 4 months, pending analysis. Once this second product goes into beta testing, I'll start the plenum build. And you have to keep in mind there are a LOT of variables involved with a plenum design. PCV bypass, *multiple Vacuum gallaries, clutch and brake booster vacuum sources, idle air control module, egr (lower plenum)... It's not a simple "lets make a new plenum". Here's a suggestion; if you don't like the current configuration, then instead of bitching about it, come up with something on your own and bring it to the table.
