 This is not really airworthy yet, but it will just bolt on my engine so
I can quickly do some ground testing to see if it will work. I used the
stock manifold piece that already had the fuel injector ports and cut it
down, rotated it 180 degrees.  This way I can use the stock fuel rail
with no mods.  Paul's new intake manifold casting has the intake tubes
going up and over the engine.  I will need to do that if/when I get to
using a turbo.  But for now I am trying to get the whole intake system
into the right wing-root area.  So the fuel injectors end up horizontal
and the intake tubes bend downward leaving the engine. I am concerned
about leakage from the fuel injectors in the vicinity of the exhaust.

Watch out guys. If you close the throttle at high RPM you
could collapse the flex hoses. Move the butterflies down
stream near the rotor housing if you can.
