Are all those intakes port matched?

Nope. They have never been bolted to a set of heads yet to be. Fresh out the package. What books have you been reading? Talking to Eric Madison?

CB Performance had some upgrade options that I paid for on the intakes.  I can’t remember what it was called right now but it was a matching of some sort.  If they’re all the same then cool but I’d hate to lose those upgrades.

Might want to consider doing a bay window gas tank because this thing is going to be thirsty! 😅

It’s gonna produce a lot of heat too so I want to stop more often, might as well be for fueling up 8-)…

plus there’s this fancy new thing called a gas can … I’ll put one on my roof for Jesse and I 😆

Baywindow gas tanks suck. More fuel to dump on the ground when you park in the gutter.

Yes Dario, I know which intake manifolds are yours. Don’t worry.😉

I’m going to sandblast and alodine coat all these aluminum parts.
