Is this Mason? That build sounds familiar.

I'd recommend the Comp XFI280HR-113.

yes kevin, the engine builder goofed and didn't seal the manifold right, i didn't check the measurements until it was out (manifold), opting to go with a used super ram as per installer.

and revisiting cam demensions, delays delays....

thanks for the suggestions
