WELL, THE CLIENT WANTED SOMETHING UNIQUE THAT WOULD MATCH WELL WITH THE KNOB. SO HOW 'BOUT A PLENUM?.... YOU KNOW, AN INTAKE MANIFOLD. MOST FLATHEAD GUYS LOVE THE OLD PERFORMANCE STUFF; EDMUNDS, EDDIE MEYER, THICKSTUN, NAVARRO, EDELBROCK, OFFY, SHARP ETC ETC. SO, I THOUGHT, MAYBE A OLDER MEYER'S PLENUM WITH A THICKSTUN RISER WOULD BE A COOL CARVE. SKETCHED IT OUT AND IT'S NOW IN THE WORKS. MAYBE SOME PHOTOS LATER TODAY
