Miller Time Intake

Dang

Are you putting this on your current motor or the new 1? I'm curious the results to your current manifold. What did the old manifold weigh? These are a sweet piece.

Believe a full size spray can fits in the bottom .. Brett Miller really got after it.. this intake is going on the new motor. Which will be smaller in displacement and bigger everything else.. the other motor will stay together.. it has been a long journey Gathering parts and pieces for several years..

Ummmm.... wow.

This is going on a Ritter block isn't it????

No sir on a 9 inch deck R3...

3.79 crank?

yes

Is that a shear plate on top of the manifold?

I wonder if this intake would make as much power as a sheetmetal intake with 2 dominators?
I'd like to try it out.

I will tell you all rules comities that ponder these things would say NO. Most all carry weight for another carb and sheet metal intake. Now the definition of what constitutes a sheet metal intake, now there is a can of worms....

Brett’s intake is a trick piece for sure

Was it cut in half and welded back together? Bet the carb will weigh more than the intake.

. No this is the new casting that Brett Miller has design.. part number 420 .2.

it's not going to make the exact same power as a sheet metal with two carburetors... however it's starting to get close.

Nice looking piece!

Yikes.

That’s bad ass bro !!!! Can’t wait to see it at the Xmas show

Nice!!

Now that is an intake!

Then you need a better sheet metal 2x4

Then you need a better sheet metal 2x4 [/quote] . . How much weight does the sheet metal have to carry over a cast.. and I was referring to close as in the vicinity..

Sheet metal intakes where we run is a 5% penalty. That is 5% of the engine size in pounds. So for your car IF you ran NMCA rules it would be 22lbs I believe. Some of which would be the weight of the additional carb and lines, I'd bet the intakes are pretty close.

Now define what a "cast" intake is first

I could be wrong but under the NMCSA rules with your current combo you will be 2928lbs? Unless I missed something.

11lb 11oz yup intake is . A couple pounds lighter

That manifold looks awesome! And huge!

. 439 cubic inch base weight 2714 -50 lb for tier 2 body.. + 44 lb cat two head..2708.ish . Unless I read something wrong there used to be a weight deduct for two speed transmissions.. but I did not see it

Yeah I must have had fat fingers on my phone calculator. If I even would have looked at that number a little closer I probably would have realized it was wrong Yep no more weight deduct for a glide, you get the honor of running the same weight with a glide or a clutch and 5 speed. Don't need to tell you which is faster I also forgot they did away with the penalty for the dry sump as well. 2708 is a bit lighter than we are but IMO puts you on the lighter end of things. If you were to build a smaller bullet you could get way down there with the two guys tearing it up this year. With their "3/4" chassis and clutches, one even has a 4 link, no penalty either. Things definitely need to be looked at and a decision made as to what direction we go. Seems they are leaning toward the "Jr Pro Stock" type car these days. Which I am sure is the direction it is headed.

....and it's purity , it going to be interesting on the new combo.
