Dude, do want you want to, but you've asked. I'd be very surprised that your boss just welded a plate on top of 4 bbl. intake without opening up the hole and then welding his plate to the intake after opening up the intake.

If that's your plan, then go for it, but your you weren't specific in your original question.

Putting a roots-type blower on a 4bbl intake without (again-without machining is the crucial part here) machine work defeats the entire purpose of running a blower since you are choking off a good portion of the charge.

I think 'Ol Ron made a blower intake by machining off the top of a Fenton intake and welding a plate to it.
