440 Intake for Full Race?? - Our Lil Red Express
Here's a look at the difference in the port size. As I said before our heads are recommended by to be opened to this size. You can feel a wedge of material on the top of the runner that needs to be taken off.

The intake needs the thickness of the gasket taken off to fit the heads. This is a peak down the runner with no gaskets... the bottom and middle are flush but the top and outer edge need a bit of work.

It looks small on the engine compared to the TR... a nice Pro Systems carb will look good on top. We could probably get away with the flat stock hood now which would look great...

I figure I will use this thread to chart progress... Including the dyno info in the spring. Next will be getting a carb in the new year.
