I was looking at that too.. I'm tempted.

Is this supposed to be better than the crawford cast plenum?

Yeah, you have to remove the strut bar. APS doesn't sell a replacement one and I'm unsure if any aftermarket strut can even clear it.

That's too bad about loosing the bar. Looks like a nice plenum but I want to stay with the support and not have to buy another piece. May just go with the spacer idea.

that doesn't add up..
Turbo + Rolex = Divorce
Turbo = Divorce - Rolex so this means if you get a divorce without a rolex, you get a turbo?
or
Rolex = Divorce - Turbo so this means if you get a divorce without a turbo, you get a rolex?

logically don't make sense,
thus Turbo + Rolex != Divorce
it might = to a few month in the Dog house though...

anyways, you can't get a divorce yet, still waiting for the hookup at the house warming

Point taken. It still looks great tho

It follows the typical venom "race" manifold design... I wonder if even Kinetix is capable of messing that up...

Looks to be a quality piece. As is true with any part, I'm waiting for independent dynos to make a choice. Looks like I'll be getting the AAM spacer by the end of the week.
