Default Spotted: Holley prototype (I think?)

Hey everyone,

I lurk on this forum lot doing research for a conversion that I'm planning to do.

Earlier today I was at a sandwich shop near where I work out in Bowling Green, and a few tables across from me there were a couple of guys sitting at a table discussing what look to be some new products for LS motors.

All I know for sure is that I saw "Holley" on one of the prototype material pieces which looked to be like a dual quad setup (what an engineering friend of mine told me), and a tunnel ram setup.

The both of them got up to go to the restroom or get refills or something and that was all I needed. I ran up and snapped a few quickies for you guys. I wish I could've taken them home with me and got better photos but I heard what happened to that guy with the iPhone 4 and all....haha.

What do you guys think (pics below)?:

Something fishy, the faces are blurred & they just both happen to get up & leave "prototypes" sitting for the asking at the same time?
But either way looks cool

"Hey Tom, let's go in this deli and lug these 2 giant intakes in with us."

"Sounds great, Steve. I love taking prototype parts in with me for a quick bite. I sure would like to talk more about these over a sammich, just hope no one takes a picture when we both go to the john to jerk each other off."

Yeah, that would never happen if it was supposed to be out of the public eye. Am I to understand that while the guys were in the bathroom no one picked those up and walked off? Riiight.

What's with the funky runners on that 2X4 intake?? Dual plane?? I think it would be way nicer if all of the runners were the same length. I also don't see any injector bosses on that one. Carb only I guess .

Interesting. I'm helping Holley promote LS Fest and I heard they are bringing some intakes to display.... I wonder if we are seeing some of them.

I like the tunnel ram, hope they offer it for cathedral, LS3, and LS7 combination.

I like the tunnel ram removable top, i'm sure they will make multiple combination s for the top you can interchange, have one top with front throttle body 10Xmm, single dominator top, twin dominator etc.

The pics aren't working. I love that gif from the street warrior thread. Every time I see that it kills me. Especially, the Bumble.
