If it's okay to link to his site, are the Blue Thunder like Barry has listed still available?

Nope! Others here have asked multiple times and no dice.

Crap. I just remembered seeing it in my fruitless TP intake searches ;D. It looks pretty nice, too.

Well, here's a TP intake.

I keep looking at that one, but I'd swear he mentioned *somewhere* earlier that it has a crack repaired with JB Weld. Plus the job on the ovals make me nervous.  :-\

That’s mine and it’s listed here as well. I would be happy to send you more pictures but I wouldn’t hesitate to run it for one second if I was building a TP. It’s nicer than one I sold for a buddy last year for $200 more!

Absolutely, shoot me a pm with photos (or I'll pm you my email address) and my apologies if I've mixed it up with another intake.

I have had one of those on backorder at Mustangs Unlimited for about 5 years now. They email me every once in awhile asking if I still want the order to remain active. Sure why not. For me that is the only blower intake to have.

Sounds like I'm lucky I bought my BT blower manifold 20 yrs ago?   Wow...it's been that long now???

I bet Jay could make a roots type plenum for his fabricated 2x4 intake that fits his adapter.  Twist his arm and dish out the duckies and he may just do it lol..  no doubt it would be a really nice piece.
