"Shelf Intake" - Competition Diesel.Com

cumins01 · 01-02-2012, 03:25 PM

I know ZZ Fab, Helman, Keating Machine all make custom intakes. Is there anyone out there who makes a "factory look a like Shelf" intake out of steel for a 12v and 24v? so I can use the factory lines, intake horn, etc.
Thanks!

They make them but not cast like the head...

looking for one out of steel instead of alum. to save on cost. I thought a member on here made some but not sure.

I think you are looking for BigyellowIron. Just a guess. I think his were tubular though. Why not build one? I hope they are not extremely complex, my intake is going to be shaved today.

ZZ fab makes a shelf intake... I have one, works with factory injection lines everything.

Edit: The one i have

ZZ Custom Fabrication

How much was it?

jakethesnake · 01-02-2012, 04:42 PM

Not sure i think around 1k? bought it from a guy on here used.

Diehard Ram · 01-02-2012, 05:31 PM

Thats for than i want to pay for what it is. I could buy a big runner intake for that.

Red_Rattler · 01-02-2012, 05:43 PM

B&B has some nice looking pieces! I really like the billet shelf.

newsmoke · 01-02-2012, 05:54 PM

I dont think the price has much to do with the kind of material they are made of.

Joe @ Joker fabrication made my tube intake and injector lines when he ported my head for my mud truck, he's now going to modify the tube intake so that I can feed air in from the rear instead of the front. Great guy.

just saw your factory one off and TIG it back on

renopker · 01-03-2012, 01:30 PM

50'' of tig to cast head, let me see.

newsmoke · 01-03-2012, 01:47 PM

Its not that it cannot be done, its just not practical.

Diehard Ram · 01-05-2012, 12:48 AM

What i want to know is flow numbers. I need flow numbers from before and after. Just with the intake milled off. 12 and 24v heads. You can pm me if you like.

Schrowang · 01-05-2012, 05:00 AM

the biggest reason ive seen people shave intakes is so they can put a ''runner'' intake on. runners help with spool up it dosnt allow for any cylinders to get robbed air during spool.
