i happen to have one of these sitting here:
Comp Polymers 5.0L Intake Powerbox

good or bad? no idea, i haven't used it and doubt ill ever get a chance,
but if anyone wants it, i will sell

Pity its for a ho manifold

yea, my thoughts exactly,
It actually claims to be better than the explorer manifolds
Hope they can back the up but ill give em omen thing, it does have huge a huge pelenum!

I'd use the RPM air-gap with that combo.

This thing here looks insane, i think its pure sex, if i had the coin, i would get one of these:
