Re: I'm sick of waiting for a decent intake manifold. Wow! Will it fit under the hood of a Z28? <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0">

Re: I'm sick of waiting for a decent intake manifold. Thanks. It's actually 3/4" taller than my LS6 manifold. I've made the T/B hole at 90mm.
Can anyone suggest a decent Throttle Body?

Stainless is an alloy. So is most aluminum (in practical applications). I repeat my question. <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0">
Not trying to beat a dead horse here, but many forms of metal in practical applications are alloys. If it's a secret, well, okay. Just curious, as one who worked with and formed many alloys in an R&D environment over the years.

Re: I'm sick of waiting for a decent intake manifold. PlanB, what motor combo do you have that you want to shorten the runner lengths like that? Also that manifold takes a good fabricator, not just a machine shop to make.
