will this custom STB work effectively?
i have a holley stealth ram intake and an aftermarket hood which gives me room to fab up a STB that will go over the intake and i was wondering if something like this will work just as effectively as a normal STB?

Is that a top view or front view?
It'll work, just not as good as a straight bar. What material were you thinking of using? what wall thickness?

I think that'll be fine, that's a really thick wall, so it shouldn't be a problem.
