[DeTomaso] Anyone interested is having some sheet metal "tunnel ram" type intake manifolds made for high port heads?

  If you make some wedge plates, you can bolt IR throttle bodies right 
to the cylinder heads.  The ones I used were 1" thick at the manifold 
end, 1/8" at the valve cover end, and flared from 4V port size to 2-3/8" 
bore throttle bodies.

  Making the wedge plates is a bit tedious, but it's a h*ll of a lot 
easier than making a sheet metal manifold...
