Some more updates
To make the manifold match the head Will had to weld up the o-ring groove and re-machine the port ends to suit.
Also had to insert the manifold threaded holes to offset everything. Will is supplying one of his inlet anti-vibration kits, this replace the welded up o-ring groove and will also damp vibration to the plenum.













Another step closer to Dyno

A little more progress with gearbox x member I din't want the exhaust hanging to low as had to re think set up












I boxed a section off the chassis rails for the x member to bolt to and the exhaust pass through

cheers

Looking at this build reminds me of my own and has made me wonder,are you going to register it?,because of the nature of the build i thought the exhaust would exit just behind the front wheel along with a screamer pipe but i see your running the exhaust quite some way back which makes me ask the rego question,in all i must say hats off to you for a great build and i love that G-Force box.

The car is going to be a street car the running gear has been built to look like a drag car
interior roll cage a rally car exterior like pro streeter something around those lines anyway the engine was built for strong reliability and a down shifting G force.

Thanks Rally Pack

cheers Peter
