The exhaust can be cut to size but the intakes are junk. Your correct in that they need a lot of work to be usable so why fool with them at all? Even the combustion chamber has to be....shall we say "Massaged" to clear the dome on a Max Wedge piston. With all of the Chevys and Ford alum heads being used one would think Edelbrock or someone would make a "LEGAL" replacement for the 440/383 and the Max wedge. Mike Baker is very good about accepting stuff like this if it shown to be like original. NHRA needs to get off thier ***** and wake up to help the Mopar guys out.

Terry, when has the NHRA ever given a darn about Mopar guys, they have always left me with the impression that they wished we would just go away.
