Mindgame,
Congrats!
I'm not upset over the intake, just wish I had known that was going to be your route before I worked the heads. I don't work heads alone, I work the head, intake and throttle-body/carb as a system. Only way to do it right, as one effects the other.
Looks good though.
Take care

I know, I was way too wishy washy about the intake and I actually wanted to go with the carb intake right up til the last second...... sorry bout that.
The Miata is a sick idea but it's gonna be a reality cause the CE car is SOLD as of today! Now gotta find a Miata.... preferably without the motor....... and I like the newer body styles a bit better...... anyone with any leads?

240Z fits a big block quite nicely, and the R200 or R230 rear end will stand up to it, or shorten a C4 housing 1.5" on both sides (or run flares and/or different offset wheels) and bolt that in, R230 is beefier though.
The Miata weighs the same, yet is a much smaller car, they are nice but I dont think the engine compartment would be pretty with a big engine.
With the 240 layout, half of the V8 cars are 50/50 or 49/51, its only the V12 guys that start to suffer with a heavier front end.
