I sure wish they looked better, if they did i might get one... i wonder if I prime it and the paint it black like my C&L, if I can get it so you can't see the weld marks... Also it's just too angular for me, they need to smooth it out a little.

I got it for preformance not looks, so I'm happy with it!

I have a 10lb lower, 3.0inch upper on the KB, I'm thinking not only was the flow x2 but also I think the belt stopped slipping due to much less restrection/bottle neck; There are a good number of folks on here that can tell you the old boost & #s.
I know it is hard to believe; I almost shant my self! LOL;who knows, maybe the old gasket, that had been reused 4 times was leaking boost also; I did do all new this time.

I like the looks... looks like a race motor with a welded sheetmetal intake.

ramairsvt, do you know what timing you're running?
just curious what the difference is between your race tune and street tune. those are some great numbers... bet you'll be really happy with the gain when you get it on the dyno and on the track.

Thanks for the props, I want a 10.XX on motor NO SPRAY then when I get that I\ll spray it and see what happens!

I think street is 17@ and race is only 20@ I think I could step that up a tad with 110, I also added a bit more timing down low.

that dyno was only at 16psi but a real nice long power/tq curve so I hope to see a tad better @ 23/24 .
