carbide bits are the s***! you can grind anything with a carbide and an air grinder. good luck with your new intake. be sure to let us know how the car feels performance wise after you are all done

will this work with stock tb/plenum and fuel rails?

i only ask because i was in the market for a stock intake not too long ago and came across the edelbrock and it seemed as though you needed to change a few things to make it work

this might have been discussed in your other thread ( i remember you talking about getting an intake)

it will work with stock upper and t/b, execpt you need an adapter, MMR sells it for $65, but its just a flat piece of aluminum, so im going to make it myself, but aftermarket fual rails are required, im going to go with the edelbrock one's for $110

Sweet! Definately give us some reviews of the finished product. I've always thought that intake would work very well with some nitrous. Seems to me like there would be less risk of fuel puddling(sp). If you don't "feel" any low end tq loss, then I may follow suit and get one myself.

Please ask me how much my supercharger cost

I hope that doesn't kill your bottom end torque. But it does look awesome, i'll look forward to dyno numbers.

You should check out the PHR article of the carbed mod motor. It pretty much has the same setup as you.

i have seen to real world dyno sheets, and both lost very little down low, and gained above 3500, and one guy gained 47rwhp@6000rpms with a spyder intake power elbow

but if it does hurt the bottom end, the 4.30's will help out
