The top of the inlet looks fantastic.
Please tell me you are not leaving the bottom half standard?

Daveysaff

iTrader: (9)

Other than making sure the ports are matched, theres no other reason to change the bottom half surely??

rst-g

Will be keeping the bottom half of the manifold an just make sure every think matches up like Dave said, should make half decent power with the correct mods with it

Canada1

Get that inlet on a flow bench.
A gasket match will do nothing to help air flow.
The factory inlet port cross sectional area is very small limiting airflow.
Eliminating the top part helps- true enough, but far more gains could be had.

I also assume the cylinder head is well modified by a competent shop?

(one sees so many so called "stage 3" home "ported" jobs - no flow bench numbers to verify
any flow gains)

v man

ok
i have a pair of new std head light if you wanna do a little deal with cash your way

rst-g

the head is Std apart from a highlift cam, I didn't want to bother stripping the engine down an fitting heavily ported head an rods pistons as it's still my every day car maybe if it let go then maybe it will get all that but for now it will get all the bits around it so I can keep it on the road
Sounds good 2 me mate will give you a pm over the weekend!!

rst-g

Managed to pick up an engine just had the bottom end rebuilt an the head looks to have been lightly played with, just need to get the adaptor for the inlet as the head is mfi so will get that this week will post some pics soon

rst-g

managed to get this off ebay turned up today


an strippin the head to change the valve stem oil seals found it had double valve springs

rst-g

got the engine all built back up in some spare time i had in work


an the adaptor plate landed aswell


pic of the exhaust ports

Decided what management you're gonna use yet? Those 701's will struggle after 200

rst-g

Was toying with getting megasquirt or seen about getting the ofab remapped anyone know what injectors would be best for 200+ ??
