I'm guessing when you get to the point where cylinder heads are $2000 each, and a shortblock is another $5500 or so, $3900 for an intake that could make another 20-40hp (wild guess) is worth it.
For the record, I hope to get to the point one day where I think $3900 for an intake is worth it.

**** update!! Since Shawn already let the cat out of the bag, I thought I would share a couple of shots of the intake on the car. These are from the test fit to determine mounting points of bungs etc. It looks awesome and the hood even shut....imagine that!! Shawn is currently O-ringing the flanges and then it's off for final finish. I am still waiting on the 102mm throttle body so I can finish mocking up the cold air intake air bridge. For those that do not know the car, I posted some pics of it from LS Fest where it ran 10.87 @130mph on street tires with the stock intake. Enjoy!!

Jeff,
Nice car!!! Did you do the build? If so do you have some pics of the build. I see you have C4 rear suspension with c5/c6 front all done in tubular. I have a 69 Camaro pro-touring I'll be doing with C5 front and rear suspension and been thinking of doing it all in 1 5/8 tubing. Again, that's really nice Vette !!!

Yes.....I did the entire build. It is in fact C5/C4 Dana 44 built on a tube chassis. I do have tons of pics from the build.....is there something in particular you are interested in??
