Paul, since I am doing PPorts I have not been paying attention to
this thread, but I am wondering if two of the runners would have
enough capacity  for my application.  Thus far I had been planning on
intake runners of 1.75" i.d. only because 2" O.D. x .125 wall bends
are  readily available.   Of course, I would  have to add a second
injector boss to each.   Do you think this is a good idea.   Jerry

The ID of the big runner is 1.6 inches. It could be ported out 
to 1.75 with out too much labor. If I were you I would start
from scratch. You might find the right size bell mouth from TWM or 
somebody like that. When you get going with this I might do a casting
for you with two injector bosses. Getting them both inline is
the big problem so you can use just one fuel rail. I'll
have a look at that with Rhino.
