You might want to think twice about siamessing the bottom of the runners unless you plan on doing them all the way through. This could create some weird effects. Remember, siamesing your intake is in essence just shortening the length of your runners, which will shift your power band up. A search of this board will produce intake runner lengths of other intakes (super-ram, mini-ram, LT1, LS1, ect.) that you might like the power band of, giving you a reference of how long you want you're runners to be. Really, you don't want to do this unless your cam and heads are designed to take advantage of a higher operating range (ie. not stockers).

Just some food for thought.
