I install this intake is the sheetmetal one ? a couple of details mine came deformed on the intake flage side i have to send it to the machinist to have it cut 1.5 degrees on each side so it will seat flush on the heads the sheetmetal is really thin I dont know if thats the way it should be but after that it fix right the intake is for 3800plus rpms down low it feel really slow on the street ,other thing mine is for the rectangular port heads and for this one you need to use SBF injector rails check wich one is the correct for your aplication i have a set of FAST that i can´t use so maybe im gonna star a new engine just to use my fancy rails LOL good luck on the build

never buy cheap parts, they're too expensive.

Speedmaster has a horrible reputation. They're cheap copies of real speed parts.
