Hi Paul,
I have been working on adapting the injector holders to fit the manifold. Since it is necessary to
cut off excess material on the flanges, for those (like me) that don't have a mill, I have found
that a Table Saw with Carbide blade does a fine job of cutting off the excess material on the
flanges so you can snuggle them together and (almost) line up with the holes from the manifold.

Enclosed are three pictures showing the progress. The castings are quite nice, but are not void
free. As you polish them, small pits will open up, but are minor and not an issue.

Look good Bill.

BTW I figured out a away to accommodate hose and hose clamp connections.
Stager them. Weld short pipe extensions to the small injector holder
and extend the large pipe bends.
