Appears to be a 142 sedan, with a 145 roof grafted on.

Why would anybody do that.
routing the exhaust , snug around the intake.. that just preheats the intake air. and the entire engine

And that much exhaust pipes to a big single collector isn't going to help the scavenging either..
it's just stupid... and apart from being obnoxious loud, that big pipe doesn't seem to have any kind of muffler,probably sounds like crap as well..

The intake is at the front of the motor. You are looking at the back of the motor.

the grey bit.. is the part of the intake right?
the exhaust manifold.. is right along next to it.

So the exhaust heats up the intake

Most cars, keep the intake on top and the exhaust separated below to prevent that


EDIT found vid of it running, barely.. it seems to be easy to stall

Sounds lumpy to me..not a fan of that kind of sound.. defo not refined.

so it's an LS engine, so those grey are the valve covers, ok, stand corrected.
Still think it's the exhaust is bling not performance tho.

Ya that sounds terrible. I bet it's horrific from about 3K RPM to redline. Who ever came up with getting a mountain of reliable HP and torque from a compact engine definitely failed with the LS.

To be honest I think the whole thing is more about looks than actually driving. A local guy did the same intake on his LS and really fought with it. Just could not get it to idle. All those individual throttle bodies look cool but I do not think they work that well.
