In other news, we got our dummy intake for mapping and measuring. We will post pictures of it on the CMM while measuring.

Thanks,

We will likely do only modified, as the intake is going to be purposely built for heads/cam combinations for Higher RPMS.

If we have a local candidate, we may offer the opportunity for a stock engine comparison.

We are going to talk to a shop this month about production on exhaust items, but it is simply a conversation. We will touch on that if we move forward.

Thanks,
Kyle

Good new, the final piece of the puzzle is here!

Once all items are done and plotted design and drawings can move forward!

We are looking forward to working on this project as much as you are looking to the result. We will keep this thread updated as possible during development.

Thanks,
Kyle

Always hard to estimate a price before any drawings or production costs have been estimated, but we are hoping to manufacture in the range of a FAST intake manifold, and offer this as a viable option for people looking for a high rise intake alternative.

A CMM is a coordinate measuring machine. Specifically this measures points in a 3D axis. Using a CMM we can reverse engineer using factory mounting points to ensure we are making a good development part.

Specifically we are trying to eliminate error, an the guesswork in the manufacturing process. Luckily, between myself and my partner directly, we have over 30 years experience in the manufacturing industry.

We will also have fully digital models of the intake before we even begin to cut the first piece of metal. We will post limited pictures of this process, as we will be sure to get a patent for our design.

Thanks for following!
