Any other intake manifolds?

[Bpostel]

Are there any other vendors besides ZZ making aluminum intake manifolds? I got the intake cut off on my head and done some porting and polishing and now I need a manifold. ZZ looks good but they seem a little $$. Hopefully someone else is gonna come out with one.

Anybody made their own? I know it would be time consuming but you could save alot of $$.

Could you post some pictures? This sounds like a great project. Sorry, no help with intake manifold sources.

Keep us informed, step by step.

My head is out in Indiana at JR's shop. What kind of price is on the Banks intake? Smokindiesels tube style looks pretty sharp. I didn't see the grid heater which I still need.

I don't know if the Banks is even for sale yet. Doesn't look like it will use the intake heater either. I was kinda under the impression that it was only for the common rails. And I'd bet money that it wont be cheap either.

Advanced Diesel Technology has different types of intake manifolds. I would call Doug at ADT 304-864-3399 & he will answer any questions that you have & not force you into a sale like other vendors. I've read some posts on other forums where guys were complaining about the Banks intakes cracking easily & the pics they posted showed the thickness of the intake, they are thin walled. They look sharp, but I'd stay away.

Is that the Medusa intake?

Doesn't look like I will be finishing my intake project for my head. The plant that I'm working at is closing there doors. So the head is gonna be up for sale along with many other parts, maybe even the truck.
