Mike, Are those Weld also? Looks nasty!
Just read your Signature closely... thought your 05 was a 3500...no? And the 3.90 rear end? Is that a factory option?

ANd mike...i think the point of the intake is really to replace what was removed to get to the 2 intake ports that cant be reached for porting and polishing.....

Well, it looks pretty slick - if I run out of projects to work on, I'd like to build one!

I'm going to find out who manufactured them from the vendor tomorrow...

I think the 3:90 posi in the GTO was a factory option (that was a LONG time ago!

), but I put that gear set in that rear, which is a 4-spider axle out of a '67 GTO.

I've been thinking of doing something along the lines of the hole in the hood, however I would cut a circular hole and take the top off an air cleaner on it.
