I did a search but didn't see anything on this manifold. Does anyone know anything about it?

Agreed.. the only thing I saw much talk about when I searched was a few people asking about turbo applications. I also saw a comment from a senior member saying there's a loss of low end torque with that manifold.. but that's just going by what I read.

all out hp only. tunnel port like performance. i am going to get one when they make it for 4.6 3v and adapt it to mine. carbs or fuel injection twith top plate. i get a hard-on thinking about the power. i actually dream about one on mine.

Figures, doesn't seem like anything anyone with mild or straight stock Gts would need.

if you want 400hp 4.6 2v it is the way to go.

absolutely. tunnel ports have made the most hp since 1962. they also make good peak torque. just at higher rpms. fitment ? i am sure you need a small cowl or cut underneath your scoop.

my choice. maybe the new edelbrock fully ported can compete. sheet metal intakes are hard to beat. abloutely straight runners.

Thanx, I was just looking Around for prices. I think with a good lower intake, plenum and throttle body I could push the 350 RW range.
