Don’t get me wrong, I’m definitely not eager to bash the intake. If someone wanted something to be able to put a four barrel on their 5.2/5.9 by all means it’s an option. But for regular guys that know how or want to port, whether they can replicate what’s been excellently shown, can possibly come close with their own ideas or not, up to affording to send it out, and are performance minded it’s serious time and/or money to get there. My way of thinking is at that point time and/or money equals an Edelbrock if it has to have the Magnum bolt pattern, or anything else if an LA, leaving one to spend their time/money porting the SM heads (which my son bought recently with my advice so I’ll be monkeying with those myself shortly) Not bashing no sir:)
