Yeah, the back injury is going on 3+ months, but I am finally getting to the point I can do some moderate work back in the shop.

We just shipped 5 of the LIMs :cool:. I need a few more small plugs to finish the last two, but they will ship soon.

I finished up the last of the intakes over the weekend, and they should be shipping shortly.

Thank you for your patience, and I hope you guys enjoy them.

So who plans on testing first?

Don't look for any tests from me anytime soon, my 3.0 is still in pieces in the garage. This was just another part on the stack. I need to get my UIM and cylinder heads port-matched, too.

I took a look at CSVT#49's ST220 thread and if I did my math right, the volume of these ports is 1983mm/square per cylinder, an ST220 intake is only 1588mm/square (That's a solid 25% increase in port volume over the ST220?!?!?!)

Obviously that's only a piece of the picture, but numbers are always fun to play with :D

I think we have four LIMs bored out that we can sell on an exchange basis. We would need you to send in your SVT core and I would reassemble the bored out intake with your actuating rods and our new custom plates.

Once these four LIMs are sold, we would need to get another group run of at least 5 to make another run. Since it took almost a year to do that, I am betting thes four may be the last four we make. On top of that, you guys might need to buy me a case of something good to convince me to take on disassembling another batch of LIMS.
