Have you actually followed the thread and saw all the custom welding/machining he's done? The swap is worth it because he's an excellent fabricator and he's going TT.

There's probably not nearly a market big enough for him to supply parts. Unless he has all the machined stuff done on a CNC and is saved. And he made jigs for all the manifolds.

Maybe I'll just copy your swap and say *** the vq lol. Hope you have kept all of your measurements while in the process of making this swap. You could make and sell pleanty of parts and/or a kit to help people with this swap.

Are those the intake manifolds???? They look huge!

I love this thread.

Tecni, when you're done with everything, you should really put together a brand new thread with all things you've done. Otherwise, people will have to be reading tons of non-related posts.

Jeff and Lawy, you both are polluting this thread.....I do not intend to be rude but please stop. People like myself are more interested in the project and not two people arguing on a forum.

Anyway, this project looks like it is all comming together now. Looks real good! Keep up the good work.

He had it done once here. But I think he changed his mind and redid the intake manifold as a custom piece as illustrated. I'm curious also as there doesn't seem to be much room for an injector boss on that log type manifold. I assume it would have to be on the side of the runner.
