Hi there Paul

I'm chasing some of these engine mounts they are bc 22002 Barry mounts I think,
I,m not sure where to find them in Australia,
Also I'm looking at making another manifold for my rx8 renises motor in my rv,

I see you have bell mouths and injector bosses do they suit the standard injectors
that came with the motor, also it is a six port motor so any help with ideas on the
manufacturing would be great thanks I also have a 70 mm throttle body that is
currently on the old manifold which I guess should suffice.

Cheers
Christian
Rv7 Australia,

Try McMaster Carr they might ship to Oz.

We have EFI stuff for 2 inch OD P-ports. If your engine is still assembled and running and you
do not want to take it apart to convert to a P-port  Jeff is working on a six port side port manifold
for the RX8 engine.  The stock intake system is way too high.

I would put a carb on it :)

Paul, A carb is fine for performance. But remind everybody to run carb heat. Several experimentals have crashed due to carb icing. Even certified engines running carbs often ice carburetors. FI does have an advantage there.

The FAA won't sign it off with out carb heat.
I don't know about Oz or NZ.
