They are AFD 4V units, 235 cc intakes. Bought them in 2015.

The plan - not in stone yet - is to cut them .012 down to 62cc and leave .005 deck on the block. Still fussing over head gasket thickness.

It'll be Cometic. Have a good friend locally that is a dealer.

Just curious, why the neck down on the collector? I noticed on the Patriot headers I have "it went from 3" to 2 1/2" there was a lot of head building there.

Custom merge collectors. Increases low end torque. Pretty common on dragster headers.

The neck down is like adding collector length . The "choke" adds bottom and mid range but doesn't hut high RPM.
