Looks to be the same concept as the offenhauser 5893.

Looking forward to seeing how this works out.

I haven't seen any pricing yet. There is a thread over on the crossfire site with pics of it installed. looks like its not going to be available for purchase until early next year.
I did notice that so far all the testing has been done with a 383, Hopefully it will get tested with the 350 as well. If it is similiar to the offy it may be be to much for it and have similiar problems like the offy and X-ram do when bolted up to it. But time will tell and the only way to know is when they test it on a 350. Those guys are good and I can't wait to see the results. And it looks sharp under the hood

No ones ever impressed me as much as CFI-EFI as to the potential of a crossfire. A simple porting job of the OEM intake seems to give amazing results. If I had one, I'd certainly do that before investing in an after market. Just my opinion.

It will bolt right on. You do need to make either a new lid or buy the lid for it and some adapters to bolt the tb's on.
The offy however really should be used with a bigger motor. For a 350 the best bang for your money is to port the stock intake.

For the guy that just wants to bolt one on and go or doesnt have mechanical ability these may be other options.
