Hey Rino,

I've been sidetracked on my project for a while.  However, I have a
different type of  intake manifold for a 6-port engine.  It is very
light and is designed for high-rpm due to the short runners (which
are very close to equal length).

I was planning on sending it out to Racing Beat for some dyno tests,
but haven't had time to finish a couple of minor plumbing items for
the injectors.

I has a Ford 70 mm throttle body shown in the pix, but the holes will
accept a stock Renesis TB.

If you have any interest in testing this manifold on your engine,
please let me know.

Well my RX8 engine is now a permanent p-port. The side intake ports
are filled in with JB Weld. Mazdatrix would give you a better deal
on the dyno test I suspect. I will help Dave Lemon get the EFI working.
Mazdatrix is closer to me than RB anyway.

Thanks, Paul.  I knew that your engine wouldn't accept this manifold, which is why I asked Rino.

Regarding Mazdatrix, would it work better for me to work with Dave directly, or let you
look at the TB first and coordinate things?  I know that you work with Dave and the
company on your PP and other projects.  With your help, maybe this one could fit into
another dyno run, and I could just take care of the costs?

Both. I'll help Dave get it running on the EFI as he has no experience
with Tracy's system and he may not want any experience with Tracy's system.
Not applicable to road racing.

It would cut the dyno cost if you can get it running down there before
you ship it.
