Like BigInch said, the B-1 is really not an option, but welding the top of the runners is definitely do-able for the max-wedge port window. Not sure I understand how Big was suggesting doing it, but back in the late 60's, Sox & Martin had at least one Max-wedge 440 with an Edelbrock 440 port size CH4B (or DH4B, whichever one fit the RB)with the tops of the runners welded up and the port opened up to the Max port. Seemed pretty exotic at the time but much more doable now, especially with the blower intake, as the best I remember on the BDS, the runners are relatively short and a pretty straight shot from the inner plenum to the port. You could probably rough out the ports with an end mill and then die-grind to final size, it will take a decent aluminum welder to lay the material in, of course, and it will take some work, but still a lot easier on the pocketbook than the Indy option. It's always amazing to me that others find it so easy to spend "Your" money.......
