... What I'm doing these days is ordering the Trick Flow intake from Hughes Engines with their deep port match already done. That way I don't have to mess with it. Hughes has a CNC program on hand as well as the correct fixture so I don't see any reason to eat chips on my bench when they have it figured out. I highly recommend using the Hughes deep port match even if you're planning on doing some plenum work yourself. Might as well get the dirty work done by them and just do the fun stuff yourself.
I don't see that option on their web site. Dare I ask how much Hughes adds to the cost of a $350 intake for their "deep port match"?  You'll have to call and ask. They have a DPM option on some of their intakes but not all. I believe that is just because they haven't updated the website with all of the available options. I called them and asked for a Trick Flow intake with the Deep Port Match and they said no problem, be a couple of weeks. So they can do it but it isn't listed on the website for the TF intake. Here is an example: http://www.hughesengines.com/Index/...e=partnumber&page=2&partid=27651

My 440 source headed 505 has a hydraulic roller about the same size as Andys. Used Isky 8005A valve springs and haven't noticed any valve float up to 6,000 RPM. I have the rev-limiter set at 6,000 so I never ran it past that, but it does rev really fast and easy to 6,000? The Trick flow 240 headed 505 we are building for a friend, has a slightly larger 242 @ 0.050" solid roller, and using the solid roller valve spring / Ti retainer version of the Trick Flow heads. Right now the car that engine is going into has no rev-limiter, so it may "accidently" see over 6,000 RPM?

It looks like it would be over 5 bills for the intake without shipping for the basic deal. I still need pushrods,springs,retainers,gaskets,and misc. There always seems to be a lot of misc.  I just don't think I need a $500 intake at this point Gus

Thanks again Fran now lets get that HEMI box in the wagon Gus Gus will you be running your car with the Victor intake and a carb still on it?? If so I will be interested in the results ? I believe our engines are close in build and I use the Indy dual plane and have been thinking of trying the MP 337 single plane one day as its about the only single plane that will fit under my hood. So I would love to see how the single plane works on your combo ? Ron

I have one in my parts stash I just need to have it painted and carve a hole in my hood. I'm going with a new cam 616/620 lift 260/264 duration also so it wont be a direct comparison to the dual plane. I'm going to fatten it up a little bit just to be safe. I also jumped from a 3.54 to a 4.10 and that should keep my low end strong. I will still have to order some pushrods because from what I've read about EDM lifters they are slightly taller than the standard flat tappets. The car "should" go quicker and faster but we'll see Gus
