LaegerEliminator Posted July 8, 2014 Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 I'm looking for feed back on this intake manifold setup. BILLET ONE PIECE INTAKE 33-35MM BILLET INTAKES 33-35MM These intakes are a work of art, not only do they work good but they look even better. We have them to fit 33-35s. They are a 1 piece design with built in crossover tube. And a bonus: they are angled up to keep your BIG carbs from rubbing on the clutch arm! I'm running stock cyclinders with 35 PWKs on my Duncan 403 motor. It has the Duncan Masterflow Intake and Pyramid Reeds setup now. I am thinking of trying out this manifold. My questions are: Will this work with both stock cylinder and a Serval cylinder setup? Will I need to use different reeds then what I have now? I was thinking of trying VF 4's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjdgriff Posted July 8, 2014 Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 I hear of lots of ppl having clearance issues over the clutch arm. I have never used them but most ppl will tell you to get the upp intakes. That's what I run on my serval Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadarRacing Posted July 9, 2014 Report Share Posted July 9, 2014 Those intakes are super common. Honestly there isnt alot of performance difference in one intake over another. If your intakes work just keep them. A better use of the money would be to ditch the pyramid reeds and just get some VF4s from Jeff or other stuff.

trickedcarbine Posted July 9, 2014 Report Share Posted July 9, 2014 That is a great manifold. Definitely ditch those pyramids for VF4's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaegerEliminator Posted July 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2014 Thanks for the feedback guys. So I'm still wondering, will this one piece manifold bolt up to stock cylinders AND a Serval? Are the widths and spacing the same? Those of you that say to ditch the Pyramid reeds setup, what is your reasoning and experiences, proof, ect...?

RadarRacing Posted July 10, 2014 Report Share Posted July 10, 2014 (edited) The reasoning is that they made less power on the shootouts and dyno runs of them. That is old stuff and old news. Most ditched them years ago. You can google it and find it if you look. Kevin Gigot that makes the Gigot Performance Slingshot lockup did one of the dyno tests of numerous sets of reeds. Yes the bolt spacing on stock cyls , servals and cubs are the same. The same heads , Intakes , reeds , exhaust etc all work and are compatible from stockers to cubs/servals.

LaegerEliminator Posted July 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2014 Chariot one piece intake Ftw Why Chariot versus the FAST unit I'm looking at? I see that the Chariot model has an air fin in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nieskes Posted July 15, 2014 Report Share Posted July 15, 2014 I have always ran a Chariot on everything I owned or built. Im sure fast sells a great intake, just speaking from experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simplicity is better So it looks like the UPP design is a one piece unit per side? What are they made of? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sprinklerman Posted July 19, 2014 Report Share Posted July 19, 2014 So it looks like the UPP design is a one piece unit per side? What are they made of? Yes. You can get them with or without crossover holes.I believe they are polyurethane. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjayb Posted August 30, 2014 Report Share Posted August 30, 2014 I've always heard stay OEM or go with UPP for bigger carb setups. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
