[V8] PT vs. ABH intake

[Ron Wainwright]

Andrew et all....

I jsut took apart a 4.2 intake..I have an Auto 3.6 as
well I'll take apart. & I just so happen to have a 3.6
5spd intake..I can get measurements by tomorrow of the
4.2 & 3.6 Auto ones, but the 3.6 5spd one will have to
wait a few months when I get the P&P heads on the car.

 I'll report back tomorrow with measurments.

 & those Rondell rims on Allens car aren't so
hawt...LOL
