so no chance of airbox or any decent flow
there was nothing on the market that fitted , jenvey direct to heads needed a hole in the bonnet , which was a no go with lampod

so i decided to make my own , after getting some flanges i need to form the tube to match the head .

so i made a die at work and pressed the alloy tube on it and it formed the shape of the head port

then i designed a bend as there was nothing on the shelf and got is specially bent which was quite expensive as it is alloy
