Here it is folks. First intake manifold.
Fits perfectly. This is the prototype.
It will be a few weeks before I can get a bunch
cast and machined. You will have to drill your own
holes as it fits both 2nd gen four ports and 3rd gen
engines with a bit of porting required. It will also
fit a six port with some porting. It is primarily designed
for the 2nd gen four port turbo engine.

Congratulations!  Looks like you've got a winner there Paul.  Making those
core boxes was a real trick.

I'll be sending the 20B manifold pattern off to a foundry in California this
weekend for a firm quote as well.  Should be going into production in early
January.

Thanks.
The foundry owner mentioned he had heard from you.

BTW I got the last injector runner pattern out of the 3D machine
an hour or so ago so they will be going into the foundry in a couple
of days.

What size pipe are you using Tom. I might make an injector runner
pattern for you next January. I can knock out a patern in a couple
of hours not counting the 3D machine time. We can put an over and
under injector boss on it so you can use two injectors per pipe.
