SLP/Edelbrock Polished Intake -- Guaging Interest/Price
Edit: I've decided to close this thread (which was intended to determine pricing). Instead, I will decide one on my own and repost it.
Since I've decided to install a 383 vs upgrading my 350, I'm more inclined to use an HSR vs my already completed TPI intake. Part of that decision will depend on resale value of the TPI setup.
It's got SLP runners that I've mega-ported (pic below). Plenum openings have been perfectly matched to the runners. I went completely thru the SLP runners to get the bore opened up way more than cast. The runner-base-ports are port-matched to the base. I also went thru the base and port-matched it to a 1205 gasket. TB ports are now 58mm. I finished by highly polishing plenum (top), runners (front and rear), TB, and base.
My problem is with the base porting/value. I barely cut thru to the injector ports on one side, but the base is still usable. (See this thread for details).
Here is my runner porting:
Here is a HQ pic before the base/TB were done:
Here is a low-res pic of the complete unit (because camera is OOT with wife):

I decided this thread was not the best approach. I will have it closed, think about what I want and repost.
