I can see the 68MM versus the 63MM currently. But I cannot see the change
out for a larger injector due to the fuel is already met unless there is a
dramatic increase in horsepower. Maybe another brand for more consistent
even flow. I could also see a dual plug for the heads, since the 5.7 will
come with single cam per head and dual plug per cylinder.
I believe also, there is going to be a newer cam for better performance.
May ask Matt on that one.

I got the standard 7" PowerStack filter. According to the site: "The 7"
PowerStack has been flow bench tested at 1272 CFM, enough for a 600hp
motor." I cannot personally confirm that. Options are 7" and 9" PowerStack
and BigMouth filters -

I'm happy with the Z-Tube, and would buy it again without hesitation.
However I need to put together some kind of a shield to funnel cold air in
and block hot engine air.
I've been winding the engine out a little more lately and I don't think the
limitations are with the filter at this point. The narrow power curve
really makes itself evident.
Anybody have any news on the 4.7L HO? I heard it has a 68mm TB, a new
intake manifold, injectors, and premium fuel engine calibration.

How do you like it so far? Which filter did you go with?
Thanks.
