No, I didn't think about that until too late. I didn't take the adapter with me. My guess is that the Dominator on an adapter would've pushed the TF intake up another 10 hp or so.

Is that 1050/4150 one that has the baseplate that will fit either 4150 or 4500 manifolds?
If so, did you try it on the other intake?

I like the valve covers Andy

yes, the QF carb will bolt to either a 4150 or 4500 intake but it doesn't exactly work on a 4500 intake without some other fixes so I didn't run it that way. That would be a good thing to test at some point.

That is my "topless valve cover"! It works pretty well. This engine has a well sorted out valve train so there isn't a lot of oil spraying around. Just 8 streaks of oil on the valve cover. Each rocker arm sprays a small streak of oil on the lid from the roller wheel.

Look's like I have just settled on which intake that I am going to use on my 512, thanks for the time and effort Andy, I have been waiting on this info to help me make up my mind, wish TF made the low deck manifold with the dominator flange, but it looks like I will use my existing 2" spacer and do a little blending.

Did the gap from max torq & max Hp open up at all? Last I seen back in this thread was like only 600 rpm apart iirc.

If you want the most from the adapter, I`d deep blend it into and shape the upper most part of the intake cos the results are awesome..........

Thats exactly my plan.

I would like to see a video of that in action.

To bad you didn't have a M1 tunnel ram to try. Would have be interesting results

I'd like to try a tunnel ram but didn't have any luck finding one. I posted a parts wanted ad but never got any response.

I needed one of my AR372 plates to run the QF 1050 on the Wilson intake but I forgot to take one with me. If you bolt the 4150 carb directly to the M1 intake the linkage hits the manifold. There is also sometimes a leak since the 4150 baseplate doesn't always cover the opening in the 4500 intake.

Andy let me know if you plan on selling the trick flow intake. I had cash the last time I messaged you about parts. Thanks

Does Wilson do port work on other brands of manifolds as well?

I'm pretty sure that if you have the money they'll port whatever your drag in the door. Check out the cool stuff on their website: http://www.wilsonmanifolds.com/

I don't think I'll sell this Trick Flow intake anytime soon. I might be willing to make you a good deal on a very slightly used Victor 383 though.

Andy, I was waiting for someone else too ask and seeing as no one has, I will. What was the stock M1 intake volume compared too the reworked Wilson M1 intake volume? Just wondering as it really picked up after reworking it looks huge inside but it must also be moving plenty of air pretty fast.

Did they give you some type of flow sheet?

I haven't compared intake runner volumes. I have a stock M1 intake here so I'll give that a try. Might be interesting to see the volume difference if I can figure out a way to measure it accurately.

No flow sheet with the intake, never thought to ask them for one. I don't know if they flow them after porting or not.
