So, I've got some extra cash burning a hole in wallet and I need to spend it.
Should I get a granatelli 90 degree GM elbow or the Vortec 90 degree lt1 90.
The vortec one is especially designed for LT1 applications and is like 5 bucks cheaper.
The granatelli is more of a name brand item and I know a lot of people on here have them.

Application is a stock 1993 z28 Camaro.
EDIT: oh yeah, I forgot to mention the only reason I am change out the 90 is because the stock one is cracked. I'm not expecting much of gain in my application.

you can get a stock 1LE elbow for cheaper unless your looking at those for the "bling" factor:

I wasn't looking at those for the "bling" factor, I was just looking at those because they are the only ones I could find. I didn't check ebay because I don't have an account there. I don't really care a whole lot what it looks like under the hood, I'm the only one who ever looks under the hood anyway.
I just bought the granatelli one from jegs. Seemed worth the extra $20 to know I won't break this one if I fall on it while trying to take out the screw that holds the heater in.... :rolleyes:
