Well said Calvin...I would consider this route for a race engine but I don't have the contacts that Eric has to build an intake to fit. Maybe it doesn't take having contacts to get it done but it would be a factor in my decision to buy the heads in the first place if I had to deal with getting one made. To a lot of guys it can be intimidating trying to get custom made stuff done the first time. The guys who have done it probably don't see it that way but if it's the first time for someone it can turn a guy to just buy something readily available without all the hassles of custom one off pieces to make the puzzle to fit together and meet their performance goals. I would want to deal with Don and get everything as a package deal. If I were to just buy the heads and was told to deal with the intake, cam, and headers on you own, I would be very hesitant to buy the heads in the first place. I believe that will be the major decision by most in buying a set of these heads. If the other components aren't readily available guys won't want to go out of their way to do the work to get all the other parts made to get these heads to work. In my opinion it will need to be a package deal to sell many heads. If you could call Don and say I want a set of RA V heads, a sheetmetal or cast intake to fit (and let Don deal with Hogan or who ever), a readily available came core to grind a cam, and a set of headers that would fit, he would probably hit a homerun with these. If not it will be a very limited number of guys willing to do the homework on their own to get a set up and running. That's my opinion anyway.
