Mark rinda tested my modded 500 intake and huge throttle body from TPIS a few months ago, didnt see any real gains BUT we think he was outbof cam at 620ish hp. The motors he dynoed already had azsm tbs, i sent him a stock tb to try, motor lost 10 hp at 620 hp level so it was worth a solid 10 hp at that level, plenum was blended, had dart heads i think. The throttle body plus real tuning will give you a gain, after that the tiny tunners at 15.5" long are next restriction. Im just about done w dynoing the open plenum intake on my 548, soon i will bolt on a stock 500 intake then add modded pieces one at a time

Did your peak torque range move at all, 3600-4200rpm range?
My peaks were 4000rpm- 640ft/lbs
5400rpm- 585hp

Do you know what flame arrestors he was running on the 620hp engines? I just picked up a used 525 flame arrestor which I messaged you about. I do recall your results from your past thread testing FAs from your mpi build. Following your 548 thread now!!
Thank you all for your results and info!
