Looks awesome! I've been getting more and more interested in the stock appearing stuff lately. Yours has the look I like! And I have to agree with FASTFISH420, I wanna see more of brown sugar! CHIP
THANKS, guys......I'm REALLY amped about this car........it's been a long road getting it back into shape..........I almost put it off some more to finish Brown Sugar, but I figured this car would cost a LOT less to finish and I could have a LOT of fun with it on the street......
I honestly don't have very many new pics of Brown Sugar..........but I do have a pic of the new, custom built, K-frame and new rack......I'll get by the body shop next week and take some more pics.......I'm leaving Friday for a nitrous class in Louisville or I'd get some sooner.......

I've said that myself a few times during the last week..... I've been waiting to see if anyone asks about it, so there probably aren't a lot of people that've noticed it.........I've had people, that are die hard Mopar guys, standing right here looking at it and never notice that's it's got a Dominator....... It's been pimped out by Porter so it drives around like a two barrel.......

It is a Denominator , but it's not one of those intakes......... I'll post up some close up pics with the air cleaner off tonight...... but I will say that the intake came as cast with a 4500 flange.......

A friend of mine has a dominator with a choke. I always thought it would be cool to "get it" and do something like that with it.
Wow.......I've never heard of a Dominator with a choke..........It doesn't get cold enough for long enough to need a choke in Oklahoma.......

Thanks, Mike......As I'm sure you know, I get tired of working on everyone else's cars while mine just sat, so I slammed it together.......been working on it like a mad man every day for two weeks, inbetween work at the shop.........LOTS of late and early hours in it.........

I know edelbrock made a dual plane dominator intake called a CH440 for RBs. I dont know if they made one for the B motors. Made one for big chevies too, C454 i think. I am guessing they havent been in production since the seventies.
Cool.........I've never heard of that intake ........I actually bought the intake brand new last year from Mancini.........If you'll notice, the sides of the intake, just below the carb, are really flat and square.........There aren't very many intakes like that..........

intriguing dont tell me its a single plane M-1 sculpted on the outside to look like a dual plane. if so pretty stealthy
You nailed it......... A good friend of mine fabbed up covers for the front and back......He also made some covers to go low, down, in the area between the two center bolts on both sides.......I just gooped the pieces on there with "the Right Stuff" and painted it.......I drilled and tapped the hole in the back of the intake for the power brakes and ran it out from under the cover........
Where are you in Oklahoma???
Here are a few pics.......

M1 single plane with Domy all fits under a stock, flat hood with stock air cleaner and filter......with the help of 1" spacers between the K-frame and body........ That's one of those K&N bases with a 1/4" cut off the bottom of the bell and the outer edge, where the normal air filter rests, cut off......I put the 4 bolts in there to center the air filter........
