It's on the Scout II Thanks again!
I completely forgot. I will see if I can take some pictures of it tonight. It doubles as a crosshair for when I'm stuck in traffic on the way home from work |

Cheap sandblast cabinet :P
Part laying around , and a working engine to make a dead drier blower work . I made "funnels" for the runners . I m sure this will add at least 25hp :) What is the right word for this ? Is funnel correct ? Aluminium 3/8 on top. Of course it will be polished . What I got , for now . |

Looks awesome! What's it weigh? I would call those funnels "velocity stacks", but I am not sure if that is a car term too or just a motorcycle term.

lookn good man, lots of hard work there, definitly put a brace from the bottom of the manifold to the motor mount... when the supercharger is under boost, it will put alot of stress on the mount...

I had an idea .... The ignition works with both mecanical advance , and vacuum .
I hope I will have pressure in the intake , not vacuum :) So how to deal with this ? Thanks . |
