Well, the long debated, long awaited Weiand 6bbl intake came in today, and this one is a BEAUTY!
The only mods I can see are all of the runners have been VERY nicely radiused and blended into the plenum floor. Nice, smooth, gradual curves now replace the sharp 90° edges of the original casting.
This has been about a year in the making, with a lot of close calls, but when I finally committed to buy one, the first one was really hacked up. I'm grateful that the seller took that one back and sent me this gorgeous example.
Eventually, I may get this bad boy polished, but now it's time for some measurements and calculations, and the next big step will be to see for myself that this intake with the carbs on top will actually FIT under the hood with my N96 Air Grabber.
