No kidding! This adaptor idea would have died on the vine without you guys at WCCH. You guys spent so much time working with me and looking at goofy pictures of silicon adaptors and turbo bells from random websites hehe
I can't tell you how much I appreciate all the time and effort you put into this -- it's not that often you find a company willing to go that extra hundred miles to get a crazy idea worked out -- especially on something that may end up being a one-off part.

I decided to post this to try to generate thoughts on alternative ideas to the restrictive truck intakes. It seems that the car manifolds require a significant amount of fabrication to fit onto the trucks. If this setup can be done more simply and economically then it gives the trucks another possible alternative.
I don't have any data from Edelbrock on the plenum size of their intakes. I'll dig around to see if that info can be found and report back. For sure the intake runner lengths are much shorter than the car and truck manifolds.

It may very well prove to make less response than mounting the ttb closer to the front of the engine as with sheet metal elbows, but on paper it doesn't seem likely.

I really like the idea of a performer rpm on the smaller engines and milder setups than the victor jr. I think the victor is gonna be awesome on bigger cube engines, but I am hoping to find just the rpm manifold by itself without the timing controller.

I'd make you the box lol.
