Don,

As I said in the PM, the 337 may be a good option because it will clear your hood PLUS MP doesn't cast the runners to full MW out of the box, they're closer to 1/2 way between a standard BB ~2.27 x 1.13 port and a 2.6 x 1.3 max wedge. as I said I take HSD's out bigger than the 337 is out of the box. You wouldn't have to open up your Stealth heads much to match the 337...if you can't get Mancini or indy to do you right and get you a good 2D intake to replace the defective one,....assuming you haven't it!

The crossover part on the bottom of the intake cut off with no problems and it now clears fine. I will post a pic when I download it. Thanks for the replies , Ron

I don't know what the issue is with the Indy QC issues, maybe we should get someone from Indy to Represent here

Good luck with that, those guys border on being plain ol' ignorant! When you talk to them they make you feel like you're bothering them!

Well i'm thinking there's enough Indy dealers here, Since they are a Mopar driven company if enough Moparts dealer network people get together and tell them they got a problem they better adress.....

I don't mind bothering people...when the cause is in the right Some people really NEED to be bothered on occasion to get their in

If mediocrity is tolerated that's all you're ever going to get!

looks real good Ron.now all you need to do is finish it and get it running

Tex

I think that you would have already mentioned it, but has there been any milling done on your block or on your heads? I have the same intake on a pair of SRs and I don't have this clearance issue (I don't have the valley plate with the window because I'm cheap and like to spend ridiculous amounts of time swapping cams).
It is a tight fit on mine, but I would've thought that with the clearance would have been better with the windowed valley plate.

Here is where I cut the crossover passage out and now it fits fine. Thanks , Ron

What did you cut that with? Nice ports !!!!

Nice work,Ron!! I think that you are going to have a pretty stout engine there! Can't wait to hear the results! That baby is gonna put a huge smile on your face!!

Ron , what paint did you use to paint that intake ?

The Indy dual plane I have had a hole in the roof of the lower plane into the plane above it, I saw it when I looked in thru the intake port side of the intake and was wondering why I could see daylight thru the carb flange.

The paint is Dupli-Color and the can says Chrysler Hemi orange.
Thanks for the reply's. Ron

Is the top of your intake drilled for both pattern carbs? The intake I got has got to be a blem or something. It is warped (not square) only one bank fits the intake holes. The intake wont even set on the heads straight. The block and heads are square. I can set an edelbrock tq on it and a team G and both fit the engine perfect. This Indy seems to be twisted over 125 thou and the ports and bolt holes dont match up on one side. We are sending it back to Mancini. They gave us the ok. I have never had an intake that was wider than the deck height this bad. Even the bottom of the intake flanges are on an angle. At first I thought it was because of useing stealth heads. But this intake is just plain bad.

not sure why you didnt bother to answer my question, but it's alright.
