But I've ran them right out of the box with no discernable power difference over the iron piece. If you want stock appearance and an aluminum intake it's still the best option going, and they work perfectly fine.
In fact I've had 3 of them in my hands as of recent and I've made over 500hp and almost 600 ft lbs. With them on mild 455's in untouched unported form.
If we were talking about a max effort build I wouldn't even be looking at a dual plane anyway so you have to ask yourself what are we really doing here?

I have never seen a OE iron intake with near as much misalignment as the repop aluminums, They do a fine job on the externals but the mold placement for the internal runners leaves alot to be desired, Its not so bad to have the material there to remove to make right but when material is flat out missing or a divider is kicked way over .. no thanks
