This belongs to a friend of mine, I guess when you have a chevy you have to resort to what ever you can do to make it faster.

I have been working on this for several days.

Nice work! I recall someone telling me about a Mopar manifold on a SBC in the Michigan area. I think Uratchko built the motor.

Thats pretty cool. I don't even want to know how much it costs to do that. But i do hope he is paying you well.

What was the reason for doing this though? I was pretty sure you could get similar intakes for a SBC.

Don't quote me please, but I believe this is a common converstion that BES do on some SBC engines aswell.
Those 420 intakes are reported to be a great design, hence why they are being re-made.

This one is a 598-ab, it's way better than anything he could buy to fit it.

This is a common conversion. Uratchco is actually building a SBC with a single 4, P7, Hemi intake on it, because I just put two foggers on it.

I'll get a shot of it tomorrow before we have it cut out for a dominator.

I have a regular 598 also, I'll try to get both of them in 1 shot to see the differance

Funny cause back in the day when a friend of mine was running in GT/KA with his Daytona they were fitting chevy intakes on the 318 because of the lack of good Mopar intakes. Looks like it has taken a different turn since those days.

I know, at one time I had some spacers to use a Chevy Bowtie intake to a Mopar

My old 397" W5 engine had a chevy intake that was chopped/welded on it. Ran real good with it also. Nice to see Mopar make a part the other guys want for a change.

Could a company take the manifold you've modified and cast it into a one piece intake? Sounds like there is a market for it.
