I am still diligently working on it. In fact, I received a 3D printed plastic mock-up version of the intake that I can use for fit-up, flow testing, and the like earlier this winter. I have to finish up another engine project first in order to free up some working capital, but hopefully this summer ...

This has taken way to long, but I am making progress. I got a 3D printed version of my blower intake a few weeks ago (and promptly set it onto a very dirty 430 MEL. I am in the progress of fitting it up on the engine, checking clearances, and then I will adjust the CAD model before sending it off fo...

I am going to make at least one for myself for sure. Hopefully I can get the first one made during this coming summer and verify that it will work and fit up correctly. After that I will decide if it makes sense to make more. The first couple will come off of sand cast molds with 3D-Printed cores to...

The projects are on hold. I Moved across country this summer. Working on getting a shop back up and running.

I am that guy. I am a member here too, but for what ever reason, the forum wouldn't let me make the same post here.

What are you going to use the engine for? The reason I ask is that Weiand made the only "mass" produced MEL blower intakes, they pop up on E-bay from time to time, typically cost $1500 to $2500 depending on quality. The problem with the Weiand is that they were essentially a race only manifold. Ther...

The small block / big block distinction gets a bit annoying when talking about anything other than Chebbies. The being said, a little food for thought. The 2 most commonly referenced dimensions when talking about block size are bore spacing and deck height. The MEL has a 4.9" bore spacing and 10.482...

It appears my earlier introduction was caught up in the great server crash of 2017, so I will try it again. I am a die hard Ford guy from Northern Minnesota. I have been playing with all sorts of cars for decades now, but specialize in the FoMoCo stuff. I am in the process of gathering information a...
