I was just thinking how hard would it really be to design/build an aluminum intake manifold? If you already know how to weld it all, just get some dimensions, aluminum and start welding. If I were to build this, I think i'd put the throttle body back on top so I dont have to play with re-routing the throttle cables. What do you guys think?

I would most likely do flow test in 3d myself, but I am just a 3d geek.... :lol:
I can proto one for you, if only I had a spare manifold to know dimensions....

Dimensions huh? Hmmm, if only I could..........This might work. Say I take my intake manifold off take some measurements for the flange, then figure out the area needed for the "box" part looking structure and figure out how long each tube needs to be to mount the box to the flange. Do you think this would work?
