    I guess I need to get some flat stock and tubing.. I should be able to crank out one a week doin' it part time and flippin'em on the 'bay...

    If I do just small blocks of the big 3.. I think I could sell one every month (or so..) I wonder how long this Rat Rod craze will last??

    No doubt, there appears to be a market. I mean hell 300 used. You could crank em out brand new in the box American made 200 all day . Offer a custom instrument package with Auto meter gages . All kidding aside I am actually stunned there were sold much less bid on...

    I was amazed as well. Some of us have been following that "intake" for quite some time now. It was originally listed for 1500 bucks!!! They've tried to sell it 6 or 7 times now and I guess it proves that no matter what the bait, troll long enough and someone will bite it!

    And sure enough the idiot who bought that will tell anyone and everybody that that's the way it was done "in the old days". That is partially correct though, the High and Mighty ran a manifold similar in design, but the fellas that designed it were Chrysler engineers and I'm pretty sure that knew what they were doing.
