I was doing a conversion. I aquired most of the parts and was just about to start it, then stumbled onto a near new miniram at a fair price, so I put the stuff up for sale.

That will be the hardest part. It is too small of a job for most machine shops and to complicated of a job for the average mechanic.
There is a forum member here that would occasionally sell them converted. You may want to shoot him a pm to see if maybe he would be willing to do yours. His forum name is Redrose.

i have a buddy that is a machinist who is modifying mine 4 me. Its a lot more in depth conversion than it actually looks on lt1.com. Its hard not to bastardize it. anyways when hes done with mine we are thinking if there is a demand maybe mass producing these manifolds.. i'll be posting my conversion pics here in a few weeks to show you all how it turned out. good luck, and my best advice is to make friends with a good machinist.

I am also interested in getting an intake done. Please let us know if you and your machinist are going to be doing these.
