paul i do have a small turbo one with a 14mm spacer welded to it and reworked elbow for better flow ,so thats definaley an option

Also, Not sure if you bought the engine fully complete, but it was already fitted with a 4 x 4 inlet and also the inlet was also ported to match the head that Karl Norris did. All the inlet manifold is beautifully ported, it took me days to do. I also took it to my local technical college where they checked that all the ports were equal on an air flow bench. On the third attempt I got all four flowing perfectly even.
hi jim

they do look sexy

i have the full engine with the ported trumpet section ,but i will probably have to take out the t4 cams you and karl had specced for the engine at the time as they will be overkill for 380bhp

ps i will be updating the build threas in the next few days lol
