Make it all out of billet, but a two piece design. Write a program for it and knock the sheet metal guys off thier high-priced horses. If you ran a bunch of them, they'd probably be more afforadable than a sheet metal one.

Check out the new issue of HRM and the 2-piece billet manifold on the featured car.

No way would they be cheaper than a sheet metal one. Rick has 4-500 in that chunk alone.

I purchase a scrap or drop pc and I have 3 of these chunks. So the price is in that area, if purchased this pc only it would have been in the hi 600s with freights.

Freight was 100.00 UPS for this one pc. and they still found a way to lay over a corner. good thing that area will be cut away.

Nope, there are a couple of companies out there build them. I have never had a car setting here to see what would be the best way to do it. For me all the a/c would need to stay intact. Texas is just too hot in the summer months to go around hotrodding with out it.

Ok gotcha you down for one intake. you paying cash or installments.
