mind you i am naturally aspirated...now the intake runners on this manifold bulge in and out with the engine...i know weird but heres a video sorry for the poor sound quality on the Iphone..i talked to john at BBR and he said maybe its a bad casting..so im going to call americanmuscle.com tomorrow and get a new one because it should not be doing this...

Wow! That is definitely not right . Good luck with the swap .


im sure once americanmuscle sees the video of what this thing is doing they will have no problem sending this one back to ford and giving me a new one not too worried about that..

but if anyone else as this intake please open the hood rev it back and forth and see if it does this!
