Mike is the theory behind your reasoning the added length which will aid in flow, or supply? Just curious is all. Very nice work btw :thumbsup:

So is it a go on the pipes or no decision yet on making them?

yep, production is a go, pricing is on the low side of what i anticipated, those who have already contacted me will get a shot at the first run should you decide you want one. production, including polishing or coating will be about 2 weeks or less from today. options will be black, polished stainless, or raw for those of you who want a custom powder coat. after the first run goes out, they will then be sold exclusively by rudy's and elite.

basically 2 reasons. one being a more direct entry into the intake manifold giving a much more equal distribution to both heads, also a much longer radius to improve airflow. i dont see any huge gains with this, but it is just a small part to remedy a bigger problem that has not been addressed.

I would also recommend ditching the clamp in the center of the pipe for one of the Vibrant VanJen clamps. I would say V-band but, the vanjen's allow for some movement. Maybe I just hate clamps and couplers though.

I wish I had that intake on my truck. Mmmmm

from what tadd thinks the clearance for the dual pumps should be no issue, if not better. i would assume i will have a couple installed on dual pump trucks before you are ready, so as not to worry.
