if you have a set of A460 heads it will not work on them, it has to be the std port layout like tfs Streets P51's Edelbrocks and such, the A460 hads are a different class all together

The Mafia intake is for oem style ports.Its the latest and greatest out there right now for those heads. The Tfs-A heads take a different style intake. The new style TFS A single 4 intake is the best production intake for A heads out there imo.The guy's that redsigned the "MAFIA" intake are all MOBSTERS from TennTucky.

The name stems from where it got it s roots.
A bunch of guys who playfully called themselves the "TFS mafia" got together and almost demanded a better intake manifold for CJ size ports and a Dominator carb pattern from Trick Flow.
They were instrumental in getting it pushed to the "front burner" and got it done.
That is where the name originated.

The coug told me the mobs for little girls, and wannabe gangsters ...so I went directly to the cartel...the kentucky cartel TFS-A's... I figired that was the quickest way to get myself killed, so it made perfect sense.

It will work with ported DOVE heads. I ran one of the first ones on my 552 ci vac class mud drag engine. I didn't back to back dyno it to see the difference, but it will fit, and it does work. It has some big runners and would work better with large displacement engines in a racing application. Cool BTW I think I am the only one who ever used it on DOVE size heads, they were some pretty well ported heads and I did have a fairly large cam in it and good C/R.
