Possibly yes but the results may be poor. It might seem like more volume in the upper plenum is better, but its not true. As an example compare the results of a 5/16 vs 5/8 inch plenum spacer.

Would likely rub your hood. Plenum spacer+ larger plenum wtf?

edit-dee dee dee, MREV2 is only the lower collector I guess, I was under the impression it was both a modified LC and a spacer.

MREV2 is the lower collector (plenum) IIRC. APS tall boy on top would be a very nice combo for the RevUp engine. At least that's what I'm going to be running shortly

First off it wouldn't fit, plus theresw no real benefit to doing the crawford plenum, spacer, and mrev. Do the spacer or a different upper plenum...

I don't see why you'd have to change the hood. APS should fit assuming its roughly the same size as the Crawford. MREV2 is simply a ported version of the stock non-revup lower plenum.

I'll throw in my answer here:

too much plenum volume typically yields diminishing returns (minor HP improvements) and you sacrifice throttle response as well.

Optimum plenum volume is roughly accomplished with MREV2+5/16" spacer

The MREV2 will work with any of the after market plenums.
There are many, many on this board doing exactly that.
Crawfords, APS, AAM, Kinetix, Skunk, Motordyne, Single Turbo, Twin Turbo, Supercharged, Everything... and in every possible combination.

Just don't use a spacer with a aftermarket plenum... It won't fit.

If you are active military, be sure to mention that if you place an order on the Motordyne website. Send a copy of your ID and use your ".mil" email account so we can reply to it.

Thank you for your service!
