There are 12 second crossfires among you. A 13 second car is very easy and inexpensive to build. I've humiliated more than one Rustang and surprised a few TPI and even LT1 cars. Why the hate on CFI cars in multiple threads. If ya can't help a fellow vette owner out, why not butt out.

Wuld be real fun to cut the roof of the port out so you can really get in there, then weld it back up or just shorten the runner altogether.

Porting Long runner intakes. Time, time, and more time.

You don't wanna get too radical cutting the runner back. Cutting the roof out and rewelding might be an interesting concept. Either way, it takes time and patience. Well worth the return though.
