I am working on a 16 valve intake for my rampage,its going to posibly get a hybrid in it at some point.Now I have a 99 stratus intake,and a 4.5 inch round gas cylinder that will be welded on the runners after the intake is cut off.The question is For every thing to clear the rad the runners wont be real long so the real question is how long are most peoples runners on a intake like this.Mine look to be near 6 inches give or take a little.

Mine's for an 8 valve and it's at 6 3/4 inches along the short radius. Of the hybrid intakes I've seen, many of them are 6 inches runner length or less. I've seen one at about 3 inches with a large cylindrical plenum like you describe.
