Hi Tom very excited !! Also appreciate he hard work you have put into this. unfortunately I only have a set of wide port Edelbrock cylinder heads. Also the bolt holes are in different locations for offset wide port. Any chance intake could be ported to match ? Maybe close enough?? If not how bad would it be if it was little smaller than opening on cylinder head intake port? Back in the day I remember somebody in the racing area are used to run oval port intake on a square port cylinder head for a big block Chevy. he said he made “more low end this way”.was that even a actual possibility? Do you or anyone who is interested know best cylinder head to look for that would make the best power and work with the late intake. I appreciate any feedback sorry if my questions are stupid I am just an amateur. Darren

Tom I would be the first to kick in a donation for $150 to help the cause. I know you are spending a lot of money to do this. Maybe it would help if others would like to help out? Just thinking...sorry if it’s not an idea you comfortable with.
Sometimes next day I feel stupid with the reply’s I send in. Hopefully I’ll be ok this time. |

I can't speak for everyone, but I think that most people interested in this manifold would want it cast in aluminum even if a plastic one could work. The idea is to make it look as close to GM as possible to keep the vintage look. A lot of guys who are into our Pontiacs are not as well versed as others on the bathtub intakes and would not be able to tell the differences between an original and a good repop. Of course, the ones following this thread closely could. When you go to a show with other makes, the Chevy, Ford and Mopar guys would be completely fooled. A plastic intake would be a dead giveaway.
