Was reading through some old threads, just wondering if anyone had taken this any further yet ? Maybe John Dixon ?

 

Def tidys up the engine bay and gives a lot more room to work e.t.c !

JD is working on a Z350 engine, so not realy related.

 

Jun did one with great success but never produced it.

And thoes that have looked into it seem to have found a major money trap.

I dont see why one cant be mass produced for not too much money ?

maybe i should speak to JD

Escort racing have also produced one, and I have seen one in progress in the U.S Nobody in the UK has however.

 

J.D isworking on a Vh45DE (Not a Z350 engine) with 8 Individual throttle bodies and custom intake. His work would be relevent to the VG if you wanted his advice.

Not quite sure what you mean but some time back Pete @ SE-Nissan was working on two mini plenums with six individual throttle bodies for Russ. Don't know how far it got though.

worth a thought, it would be interesting to see if anyone will ever mass produce one for the market

Not quite was i was thinking but WOW !!!

Big bucks mate, yer looking at supplying a small market in general supply terms. I looked at having sand casting moulds done for a different project which is easier and smaller and tooling alone was over 2.5K and that was based on buying over 200 finished items, you'd sell half that amount over years, if you were lucky ;)

Those with big bucks have had their own made ( in the US) if there was a market for them, by now someone would have copied it am afraid.

Christ, never seen a VG with TBs on! Impressive.

the long intake tracts on a stock manifold are great for low-mid range torque. changing to a stumpy or single collective type manifold would sacrifice this for better high end torque!

:p Once again smithy speaks a lot of sense
