440 Intake for Full Race?? - Our Lil Red Express

Well I went ahead and bought a 440-i4-3 intake from Indy this morning. I talked to the guy at Indy and it was very interesting. Seems we have been using our heads with the "stock" port size. They can be opened to the Max Wedge port size with a little work and it should make a big difference. He thinks the tunnel ram, although opened up, was restricting the engine quite a bit. He said for a small motor like ours that it really didn't matter all that much it use the adapter or a 4500 flanged intake. It it was up over 500 ci then it might make a difference. Anyways he said it should really wake the motor up and wouldn't be surprised to see 100hp gain over the TR.

I guess we'll see what happens...
