hey guys ,
just wondering if there would be any advantage making a straight runner intake manifold to replace the upper and lower section of the intake system on a ve alloytec,
i know a performance manifolds make a new top section but for 2 grand and they dont even portmatch the lower section thats extra is a bit steep, when in part you could make a full straight runner for alot less?
IF i was to come up with a new manifold would there be interest in people buying them ? its not going to look stock if you want to retain that look.
Will basicaly be like the custom LS manifold but with only 6 runners and ill be playing around with longer and shorter runners, to find the best gain.
Once i have found a system that works i would have the part mass produced and welded up, if theres enough interest, i can also offer a replacement system on the stock manifold ported, you buy one i send you a ported one you send your old one back.
