He is cutting the intake off of a cummins head at a special angle to install this intake. Probably pays big money for a job like this. All custom work

And here I thought my grid delete and twin tube intake opened up air flow on my 6.7. Lol that looks awesome. Out of my budget.

I am going down to ship Parts for him . I'll get a picture of the other side. It gets a large o-ring and holes must be place to bolt it on. He was working on it this morning when I took cup cakes down for the girls.
 
Very cool, thanks for sharing. Did he go to school to learn how to be a machinist?
I had a bridge port and a lathe since he was about 5 years old . He raced since he was 13 years old and did all is own engines. Then he worked at an engine machine shop that had a nitro rail. Dave from (HTA Machine) taught him a lot. We sold some of our cars and bought new equipment and he started his own shop.

Dave and Steve are still good friends and are always helping each other. Many machine shops sub out work to them. Engines come from as far as Bakersfield California and quebec Canada for major block repair. Mostly Hemis and race blocks. he has a Hemi there now that is windowed from a thrown rod. He is cutting the side out of a 383 to put in the Hemi. I'll try and get pictures of that one . What I can tell you his engines spin up like they are electric.
