Wow Rusty, that is very strange. That intake was sold to
me already bolted onto my 4-port by Atkins. I don't get the impression
they do a great job, but still cant immaging they would be selling engine
manifold combos that are that mis-alligned.
Maybe yours is actually
a 6-port engine that has been ported open to 4-ports. Is that
possible? Maybe it is an older 4-port? Something is just not
clicking right
Hi
David,
Well, I think they made
a 6 port manifold the lazy way, where they just left one big hole for the
secondaries, rather than two. I would also have to guess that they figured
this would be a one-size-fits-all manifold that could be used on a 4
or 6 port. I'm just glad I wasn't the only one who didn't realized it
didn't fit right :-)
In other news, me and
the mill/lathe have been getting very well acquainted. I'll even have
another session with the TIG welder tomorrow. We'll see if I can destroy
the part I spent all day machining :-) I'm still pretty psyched about
being able to do all this myself.
Cheers,
Rusty (looks like I'm
buying another project next week)
PS- Paul, UPS will bring
you a gift tomorrow :-)
