Not bad, but I don't see any velocity stacks by the pics.

A velocity stack isn't exclusively a trumpet shaped entry to a pipe that is raised in comparison to the plenum's interior wall. It's simply a smoothed trumpet-shaped airflow entry. The straight pipe doesn't have to be sticking out...
Maybe this shows it better:

Free, John @ Revshift owed me for the website. He also was there during the GT3076R install and plasma cut me a T3 flange spacer and stuff like that.
If there's interest in these manifolds, he's willing to produce them for around $480ish nice and polished... I'm going to get him the flange drawing and throw up an interest thread sometime soon, maybe group buy lower price. It definitely breathes a lot better, my vacuum levels were higher during cruising. Seems to take less throttle to do stuff. |

Just thought I'd throw down an updated shot with how it sits now, aluminum throttle cover, custom strut bar mounts, and new breather filter. Might be a couple more things before ASS to clean things up but here she is.

I still vote for a better cam selection and down the road swap in a 12345RFTW.
Great job none the less.
