    Christmas Came Early at Factory Five Today

    Looks like Santa (FedEx?) made a quick stop at Factory Five this morning. Here's what was dropped off.



    Dave and Tony gave it the full inspection and discussed how we plan to use it. Any guesses?

    Kind of hard to bolt a small-block Ford intake to a small-block Chevy, but I suppose where there's a will (and duct tape) there's a way.

    I'm just surprised the "Co$^a" on the water adapter isn't photoshopped out!

    Good catch, Mark! Here's a quick disclaimer on that...

    I'm thinking Dave has finally followed in my footsteps and is building a V8 Miata

    I could tell you all what it's for, but I've been sworn to secrecy and if I break it, Tony said I'll be buried in tires for Christmas. Kind of like this...

    Very nice. My guess would be for the '33 concept drawing laying on the desk.

    Told ya he wouldn't spill the beans
    My guess is a 33 or Dear Lord in heaven, the unknown, unseen, long discussed slab side FIA model!

    Yeah but since you are average height like me you would end up looking more like Kilroy with your nose just barely above the tires

    Anyone know if that will fit the new Coyote motor?

    That intake is not designed for the Coyote. I have seen a stack system for the Coyote; it looked WICKED!
