WPE finished up my new head and intake, it should be in the mail next week just in time to wrap it and stick under the tree as my wife’s Christmas present, yeah right you know that won’t happen, she a great woman and all but I would be dead if that was her gift
It’s a new Cummins head from Alabama cylinder head that went to WPE to have the stock intake plenum milled off then off to Indy Cylinder head to be ported and polished, and then back to WPE so Chris could build the intake plenum with individual runners.
Yes it’s a little different design as when I put the dodge body on we dropped the body down pretty low, basically the hood is just above the valve covers so no room for a big round plenum. What ever was to be built couldn’t stick up above the valve covers hence the oval design which should still provide the needed volume. Heck just having the intake side of the head ported and polished is an increase from what we have now. I am thinking the head work with the new intake should flow at least twice as much air as what we have now.
I will be heading up to Ponci’s Diesel in early Jan so we can get this new head installed, I can’t wait.
