What do you guys think and what sort of power do you think it'll run. (i know N/A engines are not all about power but driveability, just wondering)

^ +1 haha...

Mack do you guys have any measurement on how high the funnels sit above the timing cover?

I saw some pics from you guys I assume with shorter funnels, I was wondering if that is absolutely necessary before we find out the hard way

that set up fits under the hood just fine .But in saying that there is a new set of air horns on the way soon .
We will have all the air box and new style of air horn at the 08 PRI show you can thank OBX for this they take all your hard work and copy it then sell a f--ked up copy for cheap just check out there site and you will see how they have a copy of the jenvey parts

any idea how the new air horn design will affect the fitments and pricing?

If the current one fits then we're all good for now.

I suggest Jenvey cast their names on all the parts.

from a reverse engineering perspective, it will take more time and money to get rid of the names, also it would show who originated the product.

Is this because of the rain factor or why is it necessary for an air box.

Many issues on the kit. I will refrain from listing them, hoping Jenvey will address them soon and subsequently their distributors.

what we have so far
