I think they need a new potato to take pictures with LOL

It looks WAY cooler than I though it would with the 3x Holley's tho Clap

Is that a Hogan intake?

^If yes I bet it goes as good as it looks! Star

I see $3500 cross rams so $4000 for custom built intake.....designed for your exact motor.....doesnt seem that ridiculous to me.


I would bet real money that a properly designed Hogan 3x2 intake would outperform an original Crossram as well!

Coolness factor is hard to weigh,
so retaining resale value would be the only sure place I can see a Crossram beating a custom 3x2 intake in the future.

Tom..........I fixed the links for you.

The cheapest route to a AMC 6 barrel intake is the Indy Mod Man. 

Or you have to go custom and custom isnt cheap.  I think if you send Hogan a performer or other cheap intake they can build off the base and save you some money.  Has been a few years since I spoke with them about it.

Sure they will if you want to spend $4000 on one.

FYI: None of your links are correct. When you past a URL into the hyperlink box you must delete the second http:// or it will not work.

Like I said....

Cost is no barrier if you gotta have it.

And I like the idea!

Grafting the manifold on is easy, machining
and welding or screwing so it does not leak air or water is the hard part.

But the cool factor is un deniable....:-)

While not the easiest or most cost effective, but in my opinion the coolest way to get a factory look 3 x 2 intake for an AMC is the use an AMC Air Gap base and buy an Edelbrock 383 DP6B intake like this one http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-383-400-SIX-PACK-INTAKE-MANIFOLD-3X2-DODGE-CHRYSLER-MOPAR-EDELBROCK-DP6B/232967854176?epid=7024850159&hash=item363df75860:g:7lUAAOSwvO5bxUse:rk:1:pf:1&vxp=mtr&frcectupt=true

Cut them both apart and graft it together. The plus side of doing it with this intake is you can buy carbs, linkage, and air cleaners off the shelf and if time and care is taken it will look like a factory 401 6V intake. If I wanted a 6-pack setup this is the way I would do it.

Looks cool usually rules!

You can make a 6V set-up for an AMC but it will cost about 3 X the
cost of two carters on an Offy.

But bling does sell...
