Its a work still in progress.

I wanted a 16 inj intake that flowed evenly to all cylinders and fit under my stock hood. This is what happened.

WOW! Interested to see how it turns out.
But, FYI, a Victor Jr with an Accufab 4BBL throttle body and a carb hat fits under my flat hood......with the normal cowl trimming of course.

Then again, this doesn't look like a 4th Gen Fbody. What is it that going into??

85 Camaro

I was able to fit a 4150 carb and 2 in. filter under this stock hood, also an edelbrock ultra low elbow.

Wow.
Kickass fab work. Do you plan to run the mill around inside to open up the plenum to make it match the top plate opening?

Nope, I have a buddy who's family owns a steel and machine shop, he has done the aluminum welding, set me up on the mill, and given me materials. All he wants in return is a drive

My shop tools consist of very very basic stuff.

I am a security gaurd... I've got TONS of thinking time haha

Here's another one of my ideas



Bought some used nascar dry sump pulleys and matching belt on ebay for $50. I put keyways in them and made up a mandrel that screws onto the water pump on the lathe, Bolted the pump with a $10 bbc alternator bracket to the truck ac bracket. Belt drive on the cheap
