Paul,
Could that manifold be used as a starting point for installation in KIS, or
is it too high for cowl clearance?

It would be possible I guess. You might need a slight "power bulge" on the
top of the cowl.
Probably much easier to do then making a super low height intake manifold.
The big problem is it is not really tuned for any RPM range.
The individual port runners are way too short for 6000 to 6500 RPM.
Probably work good at 9500 RPM but then Star Mazda uses a rev limited
set to 6800 or so.
Star Mazda does not really care about max HP as all the cars have the same
HP specs and rev limiters. This is strictly intended as a drivers
series. The engine was chosen for its long term durability under
racing conditions.
