Tony,
The sad part here is that is IS a good idea. A good idea by itself though isn't necessarily comercially viable.

Bill I think you are right unfortunately all of the intake manifolds I have seen are sand cast aluminum. Which can be very heavy. I just thought that an extruted oval port tubing welded to a plate would be impressively lite. The problem here is not the money to make the tooling and get the extrusion, the problem is the minimum order. I can't have 300lbs of extruded aluminum tubing sitting in my garage my wife will hange me. Not to mention I have no room for that. What I may do is send the tubing to Wolf Aircraft they'll stock it there and then when someone needs it bent they can bend it however you want it. There I go again with my bright ideas. Tony
