mandrel bent single carb manifold

  1. Does anyone have and old mags or papers etc to see if this whas attempted before?
     
  2. I've seen something along these lines, for a twin choke....it was as you'd imagine it:
    two swept pipes running to the stock cast manifolds , with some bracing between the two...

    I'll try to find a pic:thumbsup:

    There was a US company in the 60's/ 70'swho made manifolds to fit to twin progressives....I'd've thought these would've been pretty tasty, if they'd been properly developed...maybe didn't catch on
     
  3. Are you going to attempt it ?
     
  4. Not at the moment as i have no bus or engine here:(
    I may not go down that road soon but its very much on my to look into list

    There must be loads of advantage to made from a t junction pipe design?
     
  5. let's persuade him....:D
     
  6. I think it'd take days on a flow bench and then however long asssessing the temperature effects, stasis etc...mind you, with CAD and 3D printing, it'd be a damned sight easier to mock up....ultimately though, I think FI and engine management are as good as it's going to get, unless you were doing it for the challenge....would be an interesting project
     
  7. :rolleyes::rolleyes:Having spent ages making my manifolds ,this is all yours .you can get real nice dairy bends and Y pieces ...

    3D printing has too much creep to catch on ...it gonna be all about the laser
