I think Moroso might, if not, if you tell me the number of degrees that you want it milled I can do it. Dan

Thanks Dan,I'll keep you in mind.I need to temp install intk and make sure breather and shaker still fit with the intended correction.I have no way of checking the angle.I'm using a 1" spacer .The carb needs to be raised aprox. 1/2" in the front.I have a mig welder that I can use.

My Shaker NEEDED the front tilt to it and the Torker II didn;t have it and I had to use a forward tilting spacer. So you might mock it up first.

I think as Dan said Moroso or someone makes one with a specific degress.

Hey Joe, just curious what kind of porting you did to the plenum area. Maybe you could post a few pics if it's not to much trouble.

I did a Holley street dominator years ago.We cut the top and added a 1" spacer to it and levelled it out.Worked very well.

I have one that I used to make the scoop level on the dragster, I have since switched to a Victor and no longer need it. I will look for it in the morning and if I can find it you can have it just pay the shipping. I think if I'm remembering right that it is made by Moroso.

Cool

Here are some plenium pics as requested.I went and mocked up the spacer and mig welded in place at the desired position.I'll post a side view of the intk later to show where I made the correction.

In pics above, the roof radius at runner entry was only partially completed in some areas.Further blending was done.I must say some performance gain may have been attained.Motor revs quicker.It reved to 5500 before I knew it.I have a GTECH and do most acceleration test from 60 mph.With the RPM G's would max out at .40.The HSD got .42.Inovative wide band o2 sensor went to 12.5 at wot .WOT did lean out some as compared to the RPM.Most often, open plenum intks do better with a smaller veturi.I'm most happy with change and can't wait to do some strip testing.

My sig is not current ,solid roller came out and a Crower solid 60311 went back in.I'm trying to kiss the 11s with this cam.My best the last time I ran this cam was 12.18 using the rpm intk and 1.5 HS,which have been also switched out for a set of 1.65 HS.Next test will be the use of different carbs.I have a rochester that kicks a..Also in the mix is a finely tuned QF 830 DP and a Proform 750.Stay tuned.Oh forgot to mention both intks are water cooled or water heated via the exh cross over.
