If I've got to race against that specific car or combo and I've got to qualify against that car or combo, you had better believe I got a vote!

I agree 100%

If this intake isn't worth any et. or mph why did someone bother to have it put in the guide ? Seems fishy to me. Rick.

Maybe... after its hogged out it an be made to look like stock again easier.

Agreed. I don't pretend to be an expert on this intake manifold, but what's the point in going through the hassle of getting it approved if there's no advantage?

There's already a lot of very fast 340 cars out there.

Obviously stock has gotten out of hand with all of the aftermarket stuff that's been allowed on many combos (all makes, this isn't a Chevy vs Ford vs Chrysler thing), but in my opinion, there's already some really good competition between cars of all makes in the classes this affects.

Alright...Taking the Nees option on comments.
I was waiting for someone to go there.
We're all big boys here.
Easier to cut apart with a bandsaw..
Easier to weld back together and hide the welds.
But then...someone out there already knows this...

Mark, it has been done many times on both aluminum and cast iron intakes. As a matter of fact, it is easier to find out if an aluminum intake has been cut and welded than a cast iron intake if you know how to inspect it and what to look for.

Check !

I just said it may be easier.

Anyone own a foundry? Maybe we should just cast our own heads, blocks and intakes?

Just a guess.....the almost 50 year old iron manifold is getting hard to find. Resto crowd looking for them too.
