Now that my intake flanges are here I am going to start building my sheet aluminum intake. I am only building five with one being made for someone that I am going to sponsor. It will be for a four barrel application. I will start posting some pictures on my website within the week.

I am going to sell three of them, the other two are already taken. We are going to use one on my sons car along with the turbo headers and one is being used by someone we are sponsoring. Like I said I will be posting some pictures later this week. The intake flanges are done. They are 1/2 inch thick the same as the thickness of the turbo header. There are some pictures of the flanges on my website.

Thanks to James we are in the process now for getting all the parts for a Slant Turbo engine. Mr James Jaggers at Jaggers Fabrication is going to be my primary sponser this year and will carry that banner this year. we are going to fast track this project and do a lot of R/D work so we will be busy. We are excited about this project and I think a lot of info could filter back to street cars. Thanks Ron Parker :D :D

Well, at least I lost the turbo manifold job to a worthy adversary 8) Not that James is an adversary, or anything. Best of luck to you this season. I'm rooting for you.

The carburetor flanges are in. I am using 1" aluminium spacers welded to the .125 aluminum sheet and hand built runners with the 1/2' flanges intake flanges. They should be really nice and trick pieces. They should be awesome witha turbo. Posting some pictures soon.

Since I have a better plasma cutter I am going to cut my own runners instead of taking square tubing and channeling it. I am running a little behind but should start posting some pictures pretty soon.

Any chance you'll end up making more if you're successful?

At the top there is a hidden page called slanted are way. There is pictures on the website. If you click on some of the pages look at the top you will see slanted our way appear. Yes I can make more of the intakes. Ron parker got the turbo header you see in the photos. I am going to make more headers. I am sponsering Ron. I may sponser someone else.

I found them! there's not any picture of runners yet, am I right? at what estimated cost would you be selling these? are these for draw thru or blow thru? (sorry if that's a silly question taht I should be able to figure out from the pictures, not a lot of experience on turbos)

would a 4160 600 CFM single pumper suffice for kind of a stock slant? (I have a cam and a speed ported head with hardened ex seats but no big valves. I'll be porting it more soon)

also I'd love to know how much an ex header like ron's would cost.

I havent posted pics of the runners yet. I am building another turbo header as we speek. The runners start big and then tapper down for more velocity. The carb you suggested should work. They are designed for a blow through. The headers are 304 stainless all but the flanges. pm me if you want to know more info on these items.
