Can barely see what it looks like from the blinding shine on the polished aluminum.

2V owners should be proud. I'm surprised Accufab hasn't come out with one yet.

any thing new or exciting for the 4v friends

I'll look forward to a write up on the Mikronite process... Pretty good idea if it doesnt cost an arm and a leg to get done

That looks like a nice piece.

This is what I found interesting on that page:

We had an interesting conversation with our friends, and engineering pioneers, over at Crane Cams. Next year you'll hear more about a very interesting technology called Mikronite®. Mikronite is a metal surface treatment process which yields unprecedented strength and component life. By placing high-stress prone parts, such as valve springs and rocker arms, through a reverse centrifugation process whereby the part is grazed with walnut shell media, the surface of the part becomes "compacted" and virtually immune to corrosion. The smooth, mirror-like, finish reduces heat and friction and increased power. We'll give you the details on this in an upcoming article.


Mark Campbell of Crane Cams explains how Mikronite treated gear sets gained eight horsepower over non-treated versions.

Looks like you need custom fuel rails with it.

Why cant a company make an exact copy of the stock one just not plastic. Then have people port it themselves. It probably would be much cheaper than haveing to get a new alternator and fuel rail brackets etc.

They also make another intake that it's called fox lake p51, it's also pricey but u see more gains then the bullit.
I wonder how much this new going to be, i'm pretty sure it's going to be more than a $1000.

that would just be pro products raping 4.6 owners, the pro products intake for 5.0's is <$300 new
