i'm confident it will perform and hold up fine. i did some research before building this. it is not going into the crx, but one similar will be (just not nearly as big on the tb).

the velocity stacks are spun from solid billet. quite a bit of scrap!

i will post up more pics once it is complete.
that's called turned ... but you probably know that.

I've used some of those, they couldn't make one as small as I wanted though looks like I'll have to machine some.

yeah, making them smaller, i think would be more difficult. because they are inside the plenum, i think you might get away with thinner gauge if they are formed, since they only direct air and aren't structural. i might try to see if i can form some, but i will probably end up getting some machined for the third one. the problem with forming is you have to make a die. if it doesn't work out, all the time into making the die is wasted. i already have a set identical to the set on this manifold ready for #2.
