Custom Intake Manifold

[kwhauck]

From personal experience the injectors will definately mess with you. The m90 is quite a bit bigger. Don't forget also the way the LIM, heads, and valve covers are integrated together. This complexity is ultimately what gave me give up my project and start back on a front mount plan instead like my old EM setup.

This stuff ain't available anywhere on the net, that I can find anyway:



Now I need to track down a 3100/3400 manifold to work with

Cut the ears off the M62 and it'll fit way down in there.



How much bigger is the M90?

[unchained01]

thats a start !

[JerryRigg]

Anyone have any progress?

I obtained an Eaton M62 and had it laid on top of my 3100, I believe it'll sit down there nicely, might have to play with fuel injector fitment a little bit.

this idea just came to me snice this is suppose to replace the upper and low manifold maybe it could be clearanced so we could use larger ratio SBC rockers if someone asked that yet.

Unfortunately, no. Other stuff came up, so I never got a chance to even look at it...

Any other ideas ? Or progress ?

[bszopi]

Wife and kids are gone for a couple days, so I may have some time to work on my CAD design some more. I have a few other things I need to get done as well, but I should be able to make a little more progress on this.

[unchained01]

so has anyone made any progress on this ? any ideas ? as far as machine work , cncguy may be the one to talk too about that.

I'm thinking the Lower should be designed similar to the old TDC lower, or at least use the same flange between the upper and lower so you don't need custom gaskets.

well hello, TPI, haven't seen you since the 85 IROC disappeared.

it looks like it's going to be a bit taller than a stock UIM, but enough to cause concern about hood interference?

[JSGTU88]

I figure this is as good a place as any to throw out my plan/question. I've been looking for someone to make my design a reality somehow. Yes, my design is a rip-off of the 90 beretta pace car design, but who cares, I just want to make the thing. Can anybody help make this happen?

Thanks!

Jon

Yup that'd be me, Rocketman was already taken here so I'm JerryRigg

If you go back a page I posted a manifold I made for the Mazda B6 4 cylinder: http://60degreev6.com/forum/showthre...l=1#post439597

I'm capable of making both the tooling & the casting, at least in moderate volume. I work out of my backyard, but I have a lot of equipment & can work on a larger scale than your average backyard caster. Would need to find someone or a shop to do the machining though, I don't have the tools for that.

At this point, I'm waiting to get to the junkyard so I can pull a LIM & UIM. I need one on hand for doing my own CAD work as well as planning out the tooling. Cash is tight for me at the moment though. If its a supercharger intake we all want, I'll need to locate one too again for layout & planning. A modular design is a good possibility too.

[unchained01]

yeah that guy (jerryirgg) is on here and is on w-body as rocketman he makes some very good castings

[robertisaar]

we actually have a fairly new member on W-body who does sand casting for stuff like strut bar mounts and similar things... i may need to point him here to see what he thinks.
