not Test Fit.. Test it, meaning.. why make it pretty if you put on and it makes the motor run worse.. I suggest test it out for a while first before making it pretty

those runners look as if they were sanded smooth prior to the black PC or is the PC really thick to make it smooth?

Re: Frankenplenum
Definitely going to need to shim the hood....and even take 1/4 inch out of the center of the plenum cover(its 1/2 thick)
