A manufactureer is in the R&D process on a new Pontiac intake manifold for use on mild to highly modified Pontiac engines. The manifold is to be manufactured in state-of-the-art process that eliminates core shift providing a highly finished product. The manifold will

<UL TYPE=SQUARE><LI>flow enough to feed 300 CFM heads out of the box.
<LI>have port dimensions that eliminate the need for extensive runner and plenum work.
<LI>have high velocity runners
<LI>have no exhaust cross over for a cool intake charge.
<LI>fit the standard 4150 flange and dominator flange.
<LI>...and it will fit under the stock hood![/list]
Please provide your input as further encouragement to the manufacturer. You would expect/be willing to pay?

Sounds like a killer intake! Sounds like whoever is distributing it knows what they are doing!! Thats what we need a new intake that flows and fits under the hood!!!
Be Cool,

[KGTO]

Let us know more as it comes available!

[Steve C.]

Single plane or dual plane ?

[Larry Navarro]

Fit under a stock hood?.....which car?

[larry davis]

It would pretty much have to be a single plane design. What about a 4150 base?

[6567GTO]

Sounds great Dave. Keep us informed.

btw - I like the T-shirts!

Thanks,
Phil

If its like a Nash/Warrior, you could get $350.00, but with Victor square or Dom intake commonly stocked. $300.00 is going to be the parallel price.

Please make a single plane with a Q jet carb pad!!!!1

[Big Injun]

To answer a few questions....

<LI>The manifold will be single plane
<LI>Will fit under a 2nd gen Firebird hood (and that means it will fit under every other model's hood)
<LI>It will be for a 4150 and 4500 (and maybe a q-jet but not certain yet)
<LI>May also have pads for injectors/nozzels

[rob6773]

Sounds great! How about a single plane tri-power intake? Infact, how about a single plane tri-power intake that takes the chevy/mopar holley two barrells, that would be insane!

[Larry Navarro]

Will fit under a 2nd gen 'bird,.....
So is this basically going to be a refined Torker 2 type of intake? Maybe with runner walls that extend to the plenum cavity?

[Ken -Ace- Brewer]

What we need is something like a Street Dominator! Not a Torker 2. Hell yeah a totaly done up Street Dominator. That would be way cool One that flows like or better than a Victor out of the box!! Then it would be worth it!!
Be Cool,

[larry davis]

My thoughts exactly, Larry N.

Injector nozzle bungs would be worth another $50.00 for sure!

Will the water crossover be seperated?

[Big Injun]

Yep...a Tri-Power that would really enable power and performance would be nice but I think they are looking to serve a broader market, that of a single.

The input is great...I will push for the nozzel pads.

A primary goal is that you would not have to do runner and plenum work on the intake, thus saving some good dollars for other items.

[NW S/D]

This sounds cool but please for us class racer types we need a victor type with a Qjet pad!!!

[PONTIAC DUDE]

Under $300 would be good with pads for injectors or Nitrous great.

All the other major brands of engines have these feature for under $300.

Hope it comes to pass.

[Ken -Ace- Brewer]

Other brands do not charge $300 for a Victor!!! So if it's more it comes with the territory!!
Be Cool,

[Big Injun]

Given the volume of Pontiac business, I do not think they will come in below $300. Now maybe if they could sell 10,000 units it would happen...
