Do you think long trumpets on the  T/body would have the same effect as the T/Body on a plenum?

Hi Georges,   I'm not really following the question here.  Air horns (trumpets) are always a good thing, even inside a plenum.  Anything that smoothes the flow will add power.  In all the intakes that I've made, the one thing I've learned is that smoothness is more important than size or length of runners.   

Give me a price for both parts please.

I searched my brain a bit, and remembered that the TWM TB that I'm using now is the one that fit the wrap over intake.  The other TB is a different type, and will not fit.  I also might use it, or at least half of it, on the single rotor.  In other words, I'm keeping the TB for now.  If you want the intake, you can have it, or Paul can, either way.  I thought Paul already had one of these though.  
 
Cheers,
Rusty (Paul is still the intake collector, I collect Glocks)
