If it's going to be a sheet metal intake why such a big chunk of billet?
I agree with the build it yourself philosphy.

Bottom will be billet, top will be sheet metal.

Give you a broom when you show up to help clean up. LOL Should be a couple of weeks before I can get it on the mill. Got a few other projects that are in place before I work on my stuff.

For no other reason then I want to. I could weld an intake out but thats not in the plans for this build. Billet lends itself to the build and what we have in mind. It will be a couple of weeks before I can even start in on it. But the waiting time is well worth it.
