jisleyjr Posted August 27, 2008 Report Share Posted August 27, 2008 Looks good. Will we need to drill and tap ports ourselves for the brake booster and... i can't think of what else i'll need at the moment. I assume that a 65mm or 70mm Ford tb will fit?

Minagera Posted August 27, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2008 (edited) Looks good. Will we need to drill and tap ports ourselves for the brake booster and... i can't think of what else i'll need at the moment. I assume that a 65mm or 70mm Ford tb will fit? This will fit the standard 65mm, 70mm, or 75mm Ford TB. Found on commonly on the 4.6L ford engine in Crown Vic's, Thunderbirds, and some Mustangs. This TB would be a good example of what you need. As for the vacuum question. We will add the fitting for the brake booster. http://minagera.org/gallery/d/1463-1/Brake%20Booster%20Hole.JPG There will be a plate welded on the inside on the top half of the intake that will allow you to drill and tap ports for other vacuum you might need. http://minagera.org/gallery/d/1466-1/Vacuum%20Plate.JPG Dave and I will tap and add any fittings you need for a few extra $$$. Also any other modifications that you need done to your intakes can be accommodated, but we need to know when you send a deposit.

Minagera Posted August 27, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2008 (edited) Here are some more pictures of the welding Dave is known for around here. These are from my MPI car, so please excuse the dirty engine bay :-( http://minagera.org/gallery/d/1471-1/IMG_1927.JPG http://minagera.org/gallery/d/1478-1/IMG_1929.JPG Note for the above pic. We put that gangster angle on our intake for our specific piping. These intakes will not come that way. If you want it that way PM me. http://minagera.org/gallery/d/1481-1/IMG_1931.JPG http://minagera.org/gallery/d/1484-1/IMG_1932.JPG http://minagera.org/gallery/d/1487-1/IMG_1933.JPG http://minagera.org/gallery/d/1490-1/IMG_1934.JPG http://minagera.org/gallery/d/1493-1/IMG_1935.JPG The Below pic is the brake booster line. We put a 90* brass fitting in the stock hole for that the magna use. This will be supplied on the intakes in this GP. http://minagera.org/gallery/d/1496-1/IMG_1936.JPG http://minagera.org/gallery/d/1499-1/IMG_1937.JPG Excuse my messy wires. http://minagera.org/gallery/d/1502-1/IMG_1938.JPG This is the bung put in for the GM coolant temp sense http://minagera.org/gallery/d/1505-1/IMG_1939.JPG Edited August 27, 2008 by Minagera Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jisleyjr Posted August 27, 2008 Report Share Posted August 27, 2008 Thanks for the information. I am comfortable doing my own tapping, just asking. I am still deciding if i want to take the plunge into MPI land. Once i buy this the money will have to start flowing out my pocket. ha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The car you see above is a budget MPI as I call it. Stock bottom end - Freebie MPI Intake Modded - $450 Inner Cooler Pipe Modded - $300 Megasquirt - $400 Mostly the stock harness is used on that car, with new wires run to the injectors, and GM sensors. The rest is wrench time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lusion972 Posted August 27, 2008 Report Share Posted August 27, 2008 Those welds are awesome. How long will you be offering this GP because I wont have the full amount for another month or 2. If I am unable to to pay for it right now can I send you an intake to mod for me at a later time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure on the GP just yet, still working with Brendan to get the intakes we need and over here with the right parts. As far as modding it later, most certainly. Price might be a bit increased, but that would be worked out at that later time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
