Mid Output Intake Question Reply #45 – November 12, 2018, 06:38:03 PM I had heard Tom Moss turned that business over to his son, not sure. He is good at what he does though. Anyhow, if you go that route, there is the cost of shipping the intake both ways, plus the cost of the porting, which I imagine is somewhere around $150 or so by itself. What I would do, unless you live in the middle of Nowhere, Nebraska.. is check around at your local machine shops, cylinder head shops, speed shops if you have any in your town or the local dragstrip if you don't. Usually one or two locals names will keep coming up as the guy who knows his . Get his number or webpage and dont be afraid to ask questions and see some of his work. A good port guy will usually stay busy, dont be surprised or discouraged if the there is a 2 or 3 week backlog. Quality work takes time. The advantage here is, if you find someone good thats local, you can get the intake done and for your intended use of the car, get some basic tricks done on the heads. Nothing crazy, just basic bowl/valve seat/chamber work and light transitioning into the ports is it. For mild street engines, the basic porting tricks is where probably 75% of the potential power gains are to be had. If you can get that, without paying shipping, plus the added benefit of the head work, you'll have lifted both the engine's power and fuel efficiency levels. Thats what its all about. Quote Selected

Mid Output Intake Question Reply #47 – November 16, 2018, 09:15:29 AM So Tom has turned the "business" over to his son but is still doing quality checks and has been doing this for a couple years now. All I can say is the proof in the work and quality is in the shear number of intakes they have done over the years and the work he did on mine was outstanding and picked up on the dyno. Do a Google search on Tom and you will find hundreds of satisfied customers. Just didn't what them to get any kind of a bad rep here being that his son had taken the business over as evidently the quality translated. Quote Selected
