good investment! ; ) From:

On Behalf Of Gary Pavlovich Bill, We met with Foundry
Works and dropped off the prototype intake and other required Poly parts for
casting measurements and design work on Oct. 14th and we estimate another
2months before the first manifold is produced; guesstimating late Feb. 2014 as I
am accounting for the Christmas Holiday slowdown. I communicate daily with
Roland Osbourne of Chrysler Power Magazine (the initiator and impetus of this
project) and in weekly conversation with Javier Vasquez, the engineer/owner of
Foundry Works regarding data & design of the new
manifold. Roland Osbourne has
priced the pre-production price of the New Poly Air Gap Manifold at $399 + 27
shpg.(bolts & gaskets extra) as a “pre-production” price. The
production price be, as I am told, $599 + shpg. which includes gaskets and
bolts. You may place your orders with Roland Osbourne at Chrysler Power
Magazine directly at direct 888.548.2282 or via e-mail at
I have copied and
pasted a portion of his AD and e-mail correspondence to one pre-production
inquiry below; Pre-production
prices are $399 + $27 shipping for the first 100 reservations. Final pricing
will be $599 + $46 so consider it advantageous to pre-order and be the first on
your block to slay some giants with your Poly... Coupled with the 625 Demon AVS
carburetor pictured, it will rip your head off from idle all the way thru 6
grand!!! Order
today from www.chryslerpower.com or
call 888.548.2282, or contact us at PO Box 790, Quinlan, TX 75474. This is the
prototype mock up now at the fabricator shop for final I have my order in and
will do all I can to make this a reality by helping Roland where I
can. Thank
you, Gary Pavlovich

Gary,
When do you anticipate this happening? And how much for a
manifold? From: 1962to1965mopars@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Enrique, You are not dreaming,
I have to pinch myself sometimes as well. No, Edelbrock was not interested
when we called them so we did a lot of footwork and visited two foundries in LA
to settle on Foundry Works Inc. They designed & cast the original Bob
Walker HEMI manifold from which we patterned our New Poly Air Gap 4bbl. (with
Bob’s permission and blessings – nice guy!). This foundry is not just a
bunch of guys pouring and making molds; Javier is a lifelong Mopar guy (his
company car is a 1969 Super Bee) and engineer. He also developed and cast
the Arias aluminum HEMI heads and has worked with and for some big name racers
in R&D. His expertise at building the "proper” intake manifold by
considering the required cross-sectional/taper and runner volume to produce the
appropriate intake manifold CFM flow (310-270CFM) for our engines (proper
plenum/runner
pressure throughout the manifold is also critical) made him the
sensible/right choice for this project. Secondly, upon
subsequent phone conversations, he is excited (truly – only a guy with a Mopar
heart can get past the “business” end of things...) to cast a set of High
Perfomance Poly aluminum heads for us! Of course we need to sell enough
intakes to pay for the sizeable cost of that project before we consider casting
New High Performance aluminum Poly heads. I guess the bottom
line is if we can generate enough pre-orders to pay for the Air Gap manifold
project then we (or I...somehow) will launch the High Performance aluminum Poly
heads project. Many of us have been “talking” about an aluminum Poly
manifold for some time and now the “time” has come. Roland Osbourne of
Chrysler Power Magazine is on the hook for this adventure and I am doing what I
can to make sure this manifold project comes to fruition – lots of hours but
then again, I work for free. I don’t see the Poly Air Gap 4bbl. manifold
project as some entrepreneurial deal but merely offering a cost-effective
alternative to the overpriced E-bay Weiand and to provide a truly superior
intake design for all of us “Polyheads.” Our “better half” may not see it
this way, but the joy is in the journey and the fruit of our labor will be smoke
pouring from the wheelwells. Gary
