Re: New intake manifold
LOL have you finished the prototype yet???
|
Re: New intake manifold
Dude, you have no idea how busy I am with work. I haven't even gotten a chance to pull the silver car apart yet.
|
Re: New intake manifold
How is that manifold going for you?
|
Re: New intake manifold
Things are starting to chill out a bit, but I still haven't had time to get back after the project. I am going to have my machinist do some of the stuff I was going to do, just to get it done.

Re: New intake manifold
Whats the word on the manifold?
|
Re: New intake manifold
I too am interested in the progress :)

Re: New intake manifold
Jesus Christ, leave the poor guy alone. I think he has 5 kids and a wife now or something.
BTW, I need a large plenum intake manifold by next week, I will drop the money off tomorrow. :) |
Re: New intake manifold
Didn't he start a thread about having Twins too?

Re: New intake manifold
Hahahaaa, nice guys. This project will be getting back on track shortly. I will post up the progress when I have some. I am going to have my machinist do all of my tooling instead of doing it myself, I just don't have time right now. I should have some good progress within a month or so.

Re: New intake manifold
keep us posted

Re: New intake manifold
Hey Jet, just wondering if you've made any headway on these.
I really liked the plenum flanges you had for these. And this winter I'm really hoping to pick up a SMIM to go with the rest of the setup that I'll be putting in. Just wondering how things are progressing, and if you'll have a couple prototypes made this winter that need some testing! |
Re: New intake manifold
I put in a bid for a new house tonight. 3 car attached garage will work for now and I can build a shop out back, w00t! They will be done sometime this winter whether I move or not. Projects are getting done and those are on the list, just down a little ways.
|
Re: New intake manifold
Awesome, good luck with the house! I may just try to build my own because I really need one on this winter, and if you don't have one done, then I may just make one myself. Something simple kind of like Buschur's old design. But if you get some done, let me know. Good luck with it!

Re: New intake manifold
JET puts his DSMs on hold for his life, I put my life on hold for my DSM
|
Re: New intake manifold
I used to be the same way, eventually you will do the same.
|
Re: New intake manifold
Any updates on this project?
|
Re: New intake manifold
Whenever these get done I'll buy one. Hopefully before full blown summer. I'd rather give my money to you than magnus. They make enough money.

Re: New intake manifold
Things are coming along. The shop floor is poured and I will be moving all of the tools down there shortly. I do have a few jobs lined up before the SMIM's though. It is probably going to be early summer though. I have a lot of things going on right now.

Re: New intake manifold
If you want to make me one for the evo III it can not be any bigger than a total of 8in deep form the back for the flange at the head to the back side of the manifold it self
|
Re: New intake manifold
Unfortunately I use tapered runners, not the straight ones like many places use, so I can't adjust the runner length as the ports in the plenum would be the wrong size. And I am not making a special die to bend them for one car :D That is all that is left is to make the dies to bend the plenum and the runners. My car won't run without one, so they are on the top of the priority list after current cars coming into the shop.

Re: New intake manifold
JET I need one of your mani's. Do I get a prototype discount?
|
Re: New intake manifold
You couldn't wait 4 months? This thread can only be bumped one year to the month from the last post, don't you understand?
|
Re: New intake manifold
Patience grasshoppa! The shop is starting to come together. I am picking up benches tomorrow, lighting is done and I have shelves here, but they need to be put together. I have 3 cars to do, then I can get to work on the shop some more :D

Re: New intake manifold
Holla if you need a hand nignog.
