    Currently building blower intakes for small and large desoto hemis. Can install a 6-71 or 4-71 on top. Your thoughts?

    I am currently building a stainless intake for the dick tracy car which is currently in australia, the runners are die formed. My initial plan was to build from steel and powdercoat for the street guys. If someone is building a vintage rail or something to that effect i could build one from aluminum, i have made clearance in the rear for the distributor and made the blower base plate is xtra heavy to knock warpage out. All intakes are milled smooth for excellent fit.

  7. Looking good! I am thinking about getting into Desoto Hemis . . . as I don't know enough about them as of yet, what years and size motors will your blower intake fit?

    Thanks and keep the posts coming!
