oh about 6 houres with a dremmel
then i found out that i can get in there farly easy with a big grinder....then i just got a die grinder....
shaved it right down....then i had 2 holes in the bottom of the plenum......ground down the under side of the manifold and then fiberglassed it all in

How did you remove the big humps in the middle?

makes enough of a difference......those humps can really slow down the velocity of the air

imagine driving your car 100mph down a flat black top road.....then imagine hitting another car head on.....which way are the parts from your car gonna go????? are they still gonna keep goin straight???? are they still gonna be goin the same speed as you were before you came to a sudden stop????
