505 Intake Manifold COMPLETED!

[505zoom]

Empire, also keep in mind that I am not a business, and am doing this just as a thing for the board and you guys. Nobody makes this part for us, and people have always wanted it dating back to my early days on here.

I wanted one for me, and it turned into making one for hopefully a bunch of you.

We are also tossing around some ideas for after this batch of manifolds, like lower halfs for ITB setups and superchargers, anything that we can use this tooling and programming to make. (rockon)

edit- oh and I am still trying to fit one of these into the ms3, but it has a whole different set of problems that I haven't worked my way around yet.

How many manifolds do you plan on making in the first batch?

Got you. I was thinking you had a business and just going to keep making these dowwn the road. So after you make a single production run thats it? Or are you going to make more?

Short honest answer... however many you guys want. As long as it is between 10 and 30, I can make it work.

Thanks fellas.

I am just playing this whole thing by ear really. Whoever wants one will get one, and down the road if there are more people who want one, GB's of 10 or so will probably work just fine. I don't plan on ever stocking and selling on an individual basis.

Right now I have the Thunder manifold. I might be looking into getting something that flows a little better, like the one I ordered and paid for but never got... the MAM mani.

The update pictures are looking especially sweet. Good news for people that are following closely to this thread. My thumper manifold was shipped yesterday, so this means I will definitely be ready to dyno the car when I get the intake manifold from Rich.
