What are you using for, or doing with, the intake these days?

Re: Just finished a 350HP TPI swap

Are you doing the fabrication yourself? I have a friend at a machine shop that welds aluminum, and I’ve been thinking about attempting to try to emulate your runner design. But if I knew where I might be able to have that done, and for what price, I might just leave it to someone that knows what they are doing.

If buying a set like this is not an option would you mind sending me some more pics?

We have someone that will do the manifold but not the runners.

Re: Just finished a 350HP TPI swap

And here is the 350 horse version!

For those of you who didn't see my other post, you are looking at Fastburn heads, modified by the master (Don) himself and a HOT cam.

Almost needless to say, the intake had to be modded by another master to work with the Fastburns.

The car now has a five-speed to go with the engine.

If you are talking about mine, the mani had to be modded to work with the Fastburns. The Edelcrock (with emphasis on CROCK) runners were extrude honed.

Good to see you've finally got your car converted. I know you've been waiting for quite some time. I like the relocated battery to fit Don's air intake
