Intake is rebuilt!!! Check it out!!!

I know, I know, it's just stock. But I rebuilt the intake and am getting ready to get the motor back from the engine builder. Hope to have her back together by the end of the month. Got some #50 MSD's in there.

That actually make a nice centerpiece on the table. I'll have to ask my wife if we can put mine there for Thanksgiving. Stack some random gourds on it to make it festive.

The top part of my intake is scattered about my garage. The lower part is with the rebuilder. He says he's port matching it to the heads he worked on, which should be nice.

I'm a bachelor, man. Half my car is in the house.
Just had mine gasket matched, as well. I'll have to work on the dog house and throttle body situation as money allows.

I LIKE that idea.

Keep in mind, all that stuff has to come off to install the intake.

Lol, sounds like my brother. I always loved sitting down for breakfast and needing to push cylinder heads across the table to make room for the bowl of frosted flakes.

Only downside is mounting it to the heads with the fuel rail and stuff installed, makes it tougher to turn the bolts.
