Yes, I remember that one, nice piece of work. There must be pix floating around somewhere. And then there's always Lane Goldstein's hi-rise fabbed plenum.

Not to change the subject, but how about No plenum? Greg VanDeventer had some pix of a Hilborn style velocity stack manifold they were playing with at Mercruiser. Outrageous. They're perfecting those type manifolds for use with port injection for the nostalgia gasser guys now. How about one with sixteen siamesed little stacks for the LT5? I can see one of those on a "Riddler" type show rod.

They run a similar intake(velocity stack) on the lotus GT-1 motor, which is also the same one on the salt flat 5.0 engine. In talking with Scott Skinner the velocity stack version idled at 2K or something, so not practical

I remember his sheet metal intake...can't say i remember the CF one
