I can swap the file.
But the tooling is another thing. And then it wouldn't fit.

I do have fixtures for a twins kits.

Here are some pics of intake install with some issues to watch for as you install this manifold......



Here is the pic with whipple off getting ready for Holley Hi-Ram



This pic shows the intake before top half is installed Note the 3 brass ports 1/4npt x 3/8 barb. Those are ones we added 1 for evap, 1 for pcv valve, 1 for vacuum manifold for boost guage, waste gate, and bov.. Also use a adhesive to hold the rope seal in place and where the two ends meet a dab of silicone..



Here you will see I used the brake vacuum port to run a air intake temp sensor for the meth kit. If you look to the bottom left I drilled and tapped another hole for the brake booster 3/8npt x 1/2 hose barb. The map senor hole was already there for you...



This picture if you look to the top right I removed the oem evap hose and used a 3/8 hose to relocate the evap solenoid under the intake to clean the look up...



Here is a pic of the intake on. Note double check the injector height before you install. The manifold was setup for tall and short injectors so I had to pull intake back off and drill for a mid height injector....



Here is a pic of the other side. Note I started with the fuel line for the rail going in behind the alternator and it wont clear so you will have to move it to the front of the passenger side and run a 90 with the fuel line back under the intake and out to the driver side...Really easy just sounds like a lot...



Here is the final pic with it all put together minus a belt. Note you will have to make a air filter set up work it was not a bolt-on deal....I hope to have it running tonight and ready hopefully this weekend to start turbo install if all parts make it in this week...

Ok so here is a update of how the intake runs. This intake runs great and has great drive ability characteristics but with that said I would not run this intake on a small cubic inch engine if there was not going to be a power adder. So intake runs great and will have a turbo to go with it so I think its going to be awesome and would suggest it again if someone wanted it....
