This is going to be strictly a four port unit for now, yes?  Any chance
there is going to be enough meat on it to reach out and cover a six
port?  I believe this was discussed once and the answer back then was no.

With the engine I'm working with I will probably just do up a custom unit
as I don't think there are many out there looking like this.  The Racing
Beat 4 barrel Holley manifold (for sale) that was on it used this adapter
plate that I just can't bring myself to use.  The flow characteristics into
the end sections must have been horrible.

You can see here why I want to take advantage of a 2.85 drive.  This thing
should be able to breath well with the right NA induction system.  I'm
leaning towards a 55 mm TWM ( http://www.twminduction.com ) m/ 2900
throttle body with ports for all four injectors.  TWM has some nice looking
off the shelf / off road throttle body components, albeit a bit pricey.

This engine was originally built by Rob Golden of Pineapple Racing in
Portland, OR.

Mike I am doing the same type of porting to my 6 port 13B. Would you have
any additional photos of your 6 port modifications showing more interior
detail of the port?

     Thanks
