Most of the intake manifolds floating around on the used market are for 9.2 deck engines. That's because of the 9.2 deck NASCAR limit. Because I'm using EFI, I have to get whatever intake I buy converted for EFI use.

While searching the usual places, I found many used intakes for sale for the 9.2 deck block and Yates heads. One thing I found that was kinda funny was this brand new Edelbrock intake. It was designed for NASCAR Super truck and Busch Grand National classes. Check out the price, I laughed out loud when I saw it:

Yep, $156

I didn't even know you could buy ANY intake that cheap anymore. I'm sure I'll end up with a lot in it by the time it's converted to EFI and ported, but it's kinda funny that you can start with a $156 intake for a 1500+HP combination.

I ordered it last week, I'll post up if it shows up or if it was a typo or something.
