Whenever I get any free time I have been working on this cool intake to get it fitted and ready for the dyno. I have the 8 ports raised and matched to the Edelbrock heads now. I also made a replica block off plate for the idling carb to look more like an original bathtub and more importantly provide vacuum sources for my street car. My car will need vacuum for PCV, power brake booster, vacuum advance and the heater system. I will use this plate for the 4 supplies. My AFB's are race SD clones and don't have any vacuum ports drilled in them. Thanks to 61-63 for providing dimensions for the idling carb plate. Also thanks to Tom and John for providing lots of material in this manifold for many different fitment configurations. (lots of hand grinding, and lots of chips!)
