Borla (now owners of TWM) have contacted me about doing an intake just like that, using my intake adapter as a starting point.  We'll see what happens with that...

I thought Dove had made some of those over the years.

  Yes Dove has made these over the years! For the Tunnel Ports. I talked with Jim about that 5 years ago and almost pulled the trigger on it... Very cool intake.

I have a photo around here somewhere of one with the lower area made to mate with a Cammer. Jim has the ability to do such 'mix 'n' matches. I may be mistaken, but it seems to me that the HR fuel injection he made-up for the sprint car he was involved with may have been based on that same basic set of mold patterns. I seem to remember the car on the cover of his catalog some years ago.

I'll be in for that, and another adapter to support it. :)

Pretty cool..................looks very Old School with its bulk, I bet that thing is heavy! LOL

It is amazing when you see stuff like this and then you see a Kinsler Intake for an LS motor how things have just gotten better with technology!

Agreed
Love to see what Jay could do with the design.
That would look pretty darn cool hanging out the hood of my '66 Mustang (or anybody's car for that matter). 8)

Is that Borla as in the muffler company?
