Tom,

   It would _run_ ... but you would be giving away an 
important benefit derived from having 20 or so inches 
of individual runners: maximum fill of the combustion 
chamber at 6000 RPM.

   I'm building an NA, so *I* can't afford to give that 
away on my engine.

Dale R.

Where the ported ends of the runners appear on the inside of the plenum you have ported entries into your intake ports.  Oh, and then use an Ellison as a throttle-body.     Is this wrong?
