Re: Anyone build their own Intake Manifold?
this is old, but i saw a cool *** intake made from a spearco intercooler endtank, apparently you just by one end tank and it is already shaped and has a opening at the end, looked good to me. like this but it was cast alum,

That's a sweet idea, as long as the endtank has plenty of volume to act as a intake manifold plenum. Anyone know any decent and cheap end tank suppliers other than treadstone?

I don't know exactly why but thats all I could find on the subject.

Where'd you get those velocity stacks? I've been reading around, and people are using measuring cups, metal egg trays, all sorts of crazy cheap crap that you can find in walmart for velocity stacks.
