Nice times. Maybe this can be a testament to those of us who say the real intakes are better than the ebay stuff, haha.
I haven't been following your build thread closely, but it appears that you've done a good job!

While I really think Musicman has done something special here, (and a great build write up), I can't stop thinking WHY?????
Wouldn't swapping in a LT1 or LS1 have achieved even better results for 1/2 the money? Not to mention 1/10th the work?
And even if you are pulling over 300hp out of that V6...so what?
My DD will produce roughly the same level of power, on a 3.5 L V6 NA. I have NO internal engine mods, no nitrous, stock tune; just intake, and exhaust puts it in the 330hp range. Bottom line, today's technology is far more impressive when you talk about a fully designed engine with quad OHC, VVT, and all that other wizz bang stuff, as compared to using today's technology to apply to a more primitive design like the 3800 V6. There are guys pulling 300hp NA out of 2 litres today.
If you're going to go with primitive technology, there's no replacement for displacement.

that's faster than my buddies 557ci BBF powered AC Cobra, but he spins the first 330ft
