Time to go Stage II!

[Alky V6]

Are those injector pads on the outside? Why are two narrower than the other four?

O-Ring the ports? http://www.popularhotrodding.com/en...igblockshootout/0305em_turbo_bb/photo_03.html

O-rings will be used a lot on this manifold. Not big O-rings. They will be 1/16" diameter.
The outside injector pads are wider because a bolt will be threaded into the side of the pad to fasten the fuel rail retaining brackets.

I found a spot on the runners to mount the nitrous nozzles.

That is some fabulous workmanship your doing there Donnie. Looks so clean and professional. Thanks for the eye candy, can't wait to see it done. If you could keep this under the hood that would be a jaw dropper all in itself. What are you going to do for headers? Any plans on mounting that turbo in the grill area like some of the TSO cars?

Thanks, ttypewhite.
The headers are going to be a shorter tube, larger ID version of my Stage I setup.
The turbo is going to be mounted in the same orientation as the Stage I setup.

I finished installing all the nitrous nozzles, and started drilling the injector bosses out. All the primary injector bosses are finished.

VERY nice looking piece so far Donnie.

 

[Alky V6]

Thanks, Bent6.
I acquired a new milling bit to round the sharp, square corners of the flange on the runners that will bolt to the plenum. I think it will look better with rounded corners. The corners are so sharp now that I have to be very careful when I wrap the engine with the engine bag.

 

[Alky V6]

The secondary injector bosses are finished and the sharp corners have been rounded.

Feel like building a custom draw through intake for a record run Donnie. Well, I know the answer, but I still love the work you do when you get started on something.

A view down the throat of the runner. Final widening of the runner, and port matching still to be done.

Donny your work is out of this world,Can't wait until i see this finish and at the track.

For those interested in putting in their 2 cents, I'm working on the plenum. The goal is to create a plenum volume that will be 250-300 percent of engine displacement. If you're interested, take this picture and sketch out a plenum shape, then repost it for us to check out.

Give me the dementions (sp) ect Donnie and I might be able to do it in mechanical desktop for you. Been a while but I've still got the full program if it helps.

 

[Alky V6]

I'll get those together tomorrow.

That looks good Don!

What injectors do you plan to use?
