Surely if your going to go to that trouble to cut and shut stuff, you might as well start with any 4 cyl L-series manifold, match port it to your head,and then use some tubing to your own plenum. Then you can make it as big as you like and use a throttle body of something larger probably 60mm or so.
Also custom intake and plenums look so cool!!
