 I have been so sick of looking at that plastic ugly garbage. It's, I'm done. I was shocked how heavy this plastic garbage is. This thing is pretty heavy. For being plastic, it is heavy. This is actually, to me, I'm gonna weigh it right now on my scale, but I think this manifold is lighter than that plastic garbage can right there. Which doesn't make sense. You would think that the plastic would weigh less than the aluminum, right? There must be a whole bunch of plastic in that thing. Everybody's having a fantastic day out there. So today, guys, wanted to show you brand new mod that we just got for Frostbite, and it is absolutely sick. So I'm gonna start it off with probably a sneak peek right here. But, oh, most of you guys probably know what that is. That is intake manifold off of Frostbite. This is our stock 5.7 Hemi stock manifold. And as you see, it's no longer on Frostbite. So, what's in the white box? Well, let's get right to it, guys. I'm gonna pull this joker out. Yeah. This is a two box dilly right here. All right, so obviously, stock intake manifold is a no-go, no-gueno, no longer needed. So, what do we have in this box? Shall we see? Got a gasket. Got some hardware. But, let's see what this is. Get model Hemi motors. Look at that, dude. Oh, yeah. So, here we go. I'm gonna face it towards you guys. What's in box number two? Well, it's gonna be the top two, said manifold. Look at that. Oh, let's see what she looks like. Drop it on. Right now, that's gonna look so awesome on Frostbite. I'm not gonna lie. Look at this. And I have been so sick of looking at that plastic, ugly garbage. It's, I'm done. As you see, we got the manifold to replace it with. A lot of people is gonna probably ask, why didn't you do the six, four manifold? Well, it's ugly. Just like that. It's ugly. It's plastic, and it's ugly. Yes, the six, four manifolds and the five, sevens has active runners. On an NA car, better for you. On a nitrous vehicle or a boosted vehicle, I'm sorry. I don't want that plastic, ugly garbage on my truck anymore. It is absolutely hideous. I don't care what you do to them plastic garbage cans. It still looks like garbage. You can smooth them out, paint them, whatever. It's still a pile of plastic garbage. This, oh, okay. Oh, baby. That right there, that right there is, that sexy time right there. Absolutely beautiful. This thing is gonna look really awesome with the Torque Storm Supercharger. It's gonna blend right in. It's gonna make the engine bay on Crossbyte absolutely just pop. Not only that, we should pick up a good bit of power on the upper RPM band. Cam vehicle, we have a huge stall and we have a trans brake. So yes, I am fully aware that without the active runners that's on the Hemi's factory, there's a good bit of chance if you have a big cam and everything, you could lose a little bit of lowing Torque going into a manifold like this. But there's ways to get around that and ways to tune around that. One's big stall converter, power adder, nitrous boost, which is what these manifolds are absolutely made for. They have endless nitrous accessories made by Nitrous Express, NOS, nitrous outlet, all of them have the most awesome nitrous accessories for these manifolds. They have plates that literally drop in here and direct port inject each runner evenly. So the nitrous guys, this manifold is absolutely the way to go if you are a nitrous guy. A boosted guy, absolutely. Not only for boosted guys, there's a company out there called Tic Performance that has a drop in water to air intercooler that drops onto this manifold. And then the top actually goes on top of it, kind of like so. And you can have a water to air intercooler that drops in here. And it is actually a very nice piece of product from Tic Performance. They have two versions. They have a low profile that does up to like, I think it's like 1200 horsepower. And they have a taller version that can go way over 1500. Not lying, I'm really looking into that shorter version. I would like to go to an air water intercooler and ditch the front mount intercooler that's on Frostbite. That would be awesome. But this manifold, there is just so many directions that you can go with the Holley Hi-Ram manifold for your Hemi, that again, the options is endless for the nitrous guys, the boosted guys, even the NA guys. If you're building an all out NA streamer, this manifold is still gonna be a good contender for you. It's gonna make lots of power up high. And if you have the proper converter and motor build, you will not lose very much on the low end of the spectrum, especially if you got some really good tuning going into the build. But again, guys, this thing is absolutely beautiful. I can't wait to get this on Frostbite. It is gonna look so awesome. I'm gonna grab the camera. I'm gonna bring the camera over here and kind of get a close up of this thing and let you guys check it out. The ports on these manifolds, I can literally almost put my hand inside the runners on this manifold. It is just massive. Massive. So heck yeah, let me grab the camera and let you guys check it out real quick. All right guys, so here is the manifold. I have the top off. Oil cap goes right here. They supply you with the oil cap. It also comes with fuel rails. I forgot to mention the fuel rails. Let me grab them real quick. They are in this box right here. So they give you some super awesome fuel rails to go along with this. And they say Holley EFI right on the fuel rails. Very nice sized fuel rails. Obviously they're gonna go up here like so. So you get the fuel rails, you get the gaskets, the oil cap as you can see is right there. Some hardware. And it's a really nice looking manifold. So again, this is the Holley high ram. Pretty tall. You can kinda compare it to the stock 5.7 over here. Let me move this lid. Bring this joker over here. I'm gonna turn the high ram next to it so we can kinda see it. So there you go. Hunk of garbage. Absolutely beautimous right there. Look at that. So there's the height without the lid on. And again, look at these ports. Look how massive these ports are. Look, this, I mean, I don't have a huge hand, guys, but I mean, literally, I mean, that is just, that is absolutely stupid. How much flow you're gonna get through these runners. And again, the products from a Nitrous Express, NOS, Nitrous Outlet, all the Nitrous guys. And I know I got a lot of Nitrous people on the channel. Man, the things you can do with this manifold with Nitrous. Man, I'm telling you, you can get spray bars put in here. There's plate kits from all the above. I just stated all the manufacturers make a plate that drops on that literally, I've already looked at them, squirt in each runner, dead, nuts, even. So basically, you pretty much have direct port Nitrous by just dropping a plate on top of these manifolds. They also, for the guys that wanna plumb a nozzle in each runner, you can see the flat spot here. There's flat spots on every runner. Every runner has a flat spot. So you can direct port a nozzle if you'd rather run a nozzle in each runner down low. You can easily tap this manifold. It's aluminum, it's thick, lots of material to work with. But again, there's drop in plates that does the same thing, works great. Tick performance has drop on water to air intercoolers. And they fit right in here. The lid goes on top of them and bam, you have a super nice intercooler system. I'm gonna put the lid on here, just set it up there real quick. That is what it looks like with the lid on. I don't even have to, I mean, that is just, that's just absolutely stupid amount of airflow right there. I believe this is 105 and then there's adapters to adapt your stock throttle body on, which is what I'm actually doing for the time being. I'm just gonna jam my stock throttle body on here. And eventually, yes, I know people's asked me, God, you still have the stock throttle body? Yes, I do. I mean, it just works. I mean, I don't know what to tell you, it works. And eventually I'm gonna change it out, we'll see. But right now, for the time being, because I'm trying to get ready for Moe party, I'm just jamming the stock throttle body on here with an adapter that they have from Holley. And yeah, there you go, there's that. So, lid on, again, I mean, this is just, this is just awesome. I mean, that is just a piece of eye candy. You can also get these in black. They got them powder coated black already. For the guys that wanna try to match up with your blackout theme, they got a black version. I wanted the bare aluminum version because it'll match up with the Torxstorm Supercharger and it'll look really good under the hood of Frostbite. So there you go. Now, stock manifold, I mean, hey, it's done us pretty good, guys. We've went, I see, fastest time to date, we went 11.6, you know? And I think it was like a 2,800-ish DA, we went 11.6 on this manifold. Hey, we've ran the nuts out of it. Truck has 150,000 miles on it. And manifold did us good for the time being, but it is gone. I mean, look at the, just, bleh, bleh, bleh, bleh, is all I can say. Like, these are just horrendous looking. That is the biggest thing on the Hemi. Is the manifolds are just absolutely garbage looking. I mean, it is, I mean, literally garbage can pretty much. That is what it is. It's just a block of garbage. So yeah, you know, your next best thing, guys, six-four manifold works good, tune's good. A lot of guys are running them, they work good. I didn't wanna do that mainly because it's still an ugly piece of plastic. And I'm all about my truck being fast. I want my truck to be fast. I want it to run good. I want it to look good too. And you're not gonna look good with that plastic manifold. That's just all there is to it. As you guys know, I don't just race my truck for numbers. I go to car shows, I go hang out, I go have fun with my truck. So I want the best of both worlds. And here you go, that's it. That is beautiful, that's all I can say. And this manifold will definitely let us grow into the build of Frostbite for much more time going. Like we can make so much more power on this manifold down the future that we shouldn't have to change this ever again. Like that should be the manifold, probably for the rest of life on Frostbite. That manifold is gonna flow more than enough numbers for us in the future for whatever we do to the truck. So there you go, that's the manifold I went with. No more plastic garbage. Now the other thing I noticed, guys, this manifold, and I'm sure the 6.4 is probably just as bad. I'm not sure, I don't have one in front of me, but I'm gonna tell you, I was shocked how heavy this plastic garbage is. This thing is pretty heavy. For being plastic, it is heavy. This is actually, to me, I'm gonna weigh it right now on my scale, but I think this manifold is lighter than that plastic garbage can right there. Which doesn't make sense. You would think that the plastic would weigh less than the aluminum, right? There must be a whole bunch of plastic in that thing. All right, we're gonna start with the 5.7 plastic garbage can on the scale first. Now after stripping everything down, and I know, you know, the old troll commenters out there, I got the bolts out. We even took all the manifold bolts out. Took the oil cap off, because right now the Holley don't have the oil cap, so it's pretty much bare. And now that we got everything off of it, it's gonna be close, it's gonna be close. It's gonna be close and wait, we'll see. All right, what we got? We're on the scale. We got a hot 2037, 2037, LBs. All right, well, let's swap them out and let's see. I'm still kind of feeling like the Holley's lighter, but I'll know after getting everything off of it, it's feeling like it might be kind of close. So let's find out. Here we go, let's switch them out. Woo, all right. I know, I know it looks a little jacked up. That's cause that manifold's so massive, the footprint. Hardly gets on my scale there, as you can see. So we had to flip it upside down, make it look a little goofy, but we got it on there. And, well, I swear that thing feels lighter, but it's not, it's a little heavier, but not by much. Well, before I show you, the little bit of pound difference is so worth the way it looks. But here we go, on the scale. We got 23, 28 LBs, you know, so we're three pounds heavier. I knew it was close. I knew it was close. Again, I was really shocked how heavy that plastic pile of garbage is. That thing's pretty heavy. And, well, again, yeah, it's just ugly. I wanna show you one more thing real quick, guys. I'ma flip these intakes over so you can see the runners on the backside, where they go into the cylinder heads, see the difference between a stock 5.7 that's not ported or anything to the Holley Hiram. So let's check that out. All right, so we have them flipped upside down, and that is runners on the bottom. These ports are definitely bigger than the factory 5.7. My manifold is not ported. This is a stock 5.7 manifold. That's one port right there. We'll go to the same corner on this intake. So there you go. Holley Hiram manifold for the Hemi motors, stock 5.7 garbage can going off the truck. So again, I wanna do, I do wanna mention, all right, these manifolds from Holley for the Hemi. They fit the 5.7, the 6.4, they pretty much fit all the late model Hemi's, cars, trucks, whatever. Now, with that said, on the RAM trucks, they fit very good. The hood clears, there's plenty of room under the hood. Not a problem. As you see, these are taller, okay? This is taller than the stock manifold right there. I mean, that's a pretty good difference. On the RAM trucks, the hood is not a problem. They fit, they clear, they look good. Now on the car, they fit. However, may contact the hood, possibly. So you do wanna check that. Now there is people out there running this manifold on tons of challengers and chargers. Most of them are running a different hood, but you may have an issue on your hood. So definitely look into that. Now they make other intake manifolds, it's a little shorter, that won't be a problem with your hood. I highly recommend the Hiram though, because it's gonna give you the most torque and the most power throughout the band possible. For sure. Hiram is the way to go, I believe. So again, RAM trucks fits beautiful. On the cars, fits nice, need to check with your hood. Might be a problem there. But tons of people are running it on the cars. I'm super stoked for the highly Hiram to get on Frostbite. I'm ready to see the appearance difference. I'm ready to see what happens on the track. I think we should gain something for sure. It may not be a huge gain, but I think we should gain something. But no matter what, it's gonna look good and we're gonna be able to grow into this manifold. Whether it's right now or later, this manifold's gonna be the way to go for my truck. That's for sure. Now, I wanna mention one other thing, all right? If you look under the stock manifolds, everybody knows these manifolds sit literally right on the engine block. There is pretty much no air flow underneath the engine block. They snug right up on the engine block, on the top of the block. Look at all this. You got tons, not to mention through the runners. I mean, you got tons of room through these runners, literally all the way through the bag. Tons of air flow. This thing sits up off the engine block a lot. So you're gonna get a lot of air flow under the manifold, through the sides of the manifold, and air flow through the top of the motor that currently I used to not get with this manifold. So I'm curious how this manifold's gonna cool. The engine, if we get better air flow, if the engine actually likes this manifold over the plastic. Now I know plastic, and a lot of reasons why everyone's, you know, all these manufacturers go to plastic. Plastic cools very nice, and it works well. It's just ugly. Aluminum cools really nice also. It does retain a little more heat than plastic, but all these air ports and holes, I think it's gonna be a toss up if it changes it all, or if maybe we do gain a little bit of cooling factor with having this manifold up off the engine block. I don't know, we'll see. We'll have to look at the data logs and see what happens, but anywho, there you go. That's it. So that's it for this video. We got some more stuff, more videos coming on Storm. We're working on the meth injection installation. I got that video in the works. So stay tuned for that. Pretty much done. Got to tweak a little things here and there, finish up some stuff, but Storm's almost there. So stay tuned for that. Obviously we got some videos coming with the install of this manifold and how much it changes our engine bay. It is gonna be awesome. And hey, Mo Party is a few weeks around the corner, so we got a lot of work to do. I got to get this thing on. We got to finish Storm. Storm is driving all the way from Georgia to Kentucky. It's gonna drive all the way there on a Storm supercharger. Again, I told you guys that truck was gonna be a daily driver, and that's what it's gonna be. So that truck's being driven from Georgia to Kentucky for Mo Party. If you're gonna be at Mo Party, you'll be able to see Storm and Frostbite. And obviously we're gonna be racing the tar out of Frostbite. And we'll be doing some tuning for this thing, obviously, and getting ready to see what happens. Hopefully we have some good air. We maybe break our personal best time and have some fun. We'll see some badass Mo Party. So yeah, that's it guys. As always, hit that like button. Don't forget, hit that like button.
