I can reproduce the set on my truck. Exhaust and intake, carb flange to suit your needs. 16ga steel mandrel bends. $750 plus shipping.
The universal bends only have four more welds than custom bends would.
I figured the better exhaust flow took precedence over using the stock intake. A bigger carb is needed. I think a single carb has to flow better than duals, since duals would require a primitive 'log' manifold that I think starves the middle cylinders. My design ought to work better. I think...
It hasn't had an 'after' dyno test. But it does run lots better, keeps up with the 18 wheelers on the freeway, even on hills. Well, not the empty ones. ;)
