TopDawg_43 Posted June 21, 2013 Report Share Posted June 21, 2013 (edited) Whats funny is this WILL work just as good as most of the other manifolds currently offered and require minimal modding. Who's watching intently? this guy! Looks allot like my intake, that I've been runnig for about 10 years now. It was built by V8Slayer some years before that. http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL928/13207530/23874700/406202794.jpg http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL928/13207530/23874700/406202784.jpg Will have to see if I can find the pics of it before it was installed.

LEPORE Posted June 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2013 went back and had him close up the water passage that runs under the intake.http://i267.photobucket.com/albums/ii314/blepore1/005-84_zps436ddaa2.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patra_is_here Posted June 24, 2013 Report Share Posted June 24, 2013 ok, and if so, what type of fittings? I am assuming there's no other clamps for em? how are they attached? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LEPORE Posted June 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2013 (edited) they are cut to fit push-on or push-lock hose and fittings. http://www.summitrac...sh-On Hose Ends http://www.summitracing.com/search/product-line/mr-gasket-push-on-hose?tw=push-on&sw=Mr.%20Gasket%20Push-On%20Hose Edited June 24, 2013 by LEPORE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tsiconquest88 Posted June 27, 2013 Report Share Posted June 27, 2013 Topdawg yours has the rail held down onto the injector tops. His doesnt. Quite different actually. Im curious why you didnt set it up to mount the rail over the injectors LEPORE. Would have saved some time and money really. Not knocking. It looks great! But kind of surprised at that part of it.

Yeah, from what I've seen, that's the only difference. I don't believe that will make any real difference. My fuel rail is bolted to the dipstick, and another bolt on the intake. I'm not sure of any porting that was done to the intake, but I know there was some. Prolly just a match port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speed racer Posted July 6, 2013 Report Share Posted July 6, 2013 looks good.....So the push on hose and connectors require no clamp?.......As in they fit tight enough to seal just fine with no hose clamps ?sweet.i just got a starion engine from a guy wanting to do a v8 swap and now have a 2nd stock intake i'm itching to modify to mpi. The enginw has a bit of a knock and that's why he decide to pull.don't care so much about block I just wanted the TBI stuff and so now running again.got a lot of extra stuff outta the deal...guy didn't know what was worth nor care.I got rid of an old chevy trans I will never use.Now I just need a way to weld the cast alum intake.

patra_is_here Posted July 11, 2013 Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 Now I just need a way to weld the cast alum intake.well unless you have a tig welder, you're best off taking it to a pro. aluminum is not a forgiving as steel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funky Phil Posted July 12, 2013 Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 Id have went for a better injector angle. Also, how are you going to route the water coming from the head now that you blocked its passage to the tstat? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
button Posted July 13, 2013 Report Share Posted July 13, 2013 Id have went for a better injector angle. Also, how are you going to route the water coming from the head now that you blocked its passage to the tstat? He should be able to run it into one of the sensor ports with a T and barb fitting. Especially if he is eliminating one of those sensors, He can tap it 3/8"npt and use standard fittings from a hardware store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
