Default GSR swap in their CRX with Edelbrock Manifold

I just had some intercooler piping fabricated and they were supposed to be designed to fit on to the stock GSR manifold in the CRX. Sadly it does not line up at all and it looks to be fitted for a B16 intake manifold. I'm thinking about just getting either an Edelbrock or Skunk 2 manifold to get the throttle body within the right position and of course get some the benefits of upgrading to a different manifold. But before I make the insvestment, can anyone give a few measurments on where the throttle body opening will be positioned so I have can have some reasurance that this upgrade will help realign my piping properly. I was thinking measuring from the firewall to the centerpoint of the throttle body opening or anything you can think of to help me figure out where the throttle body will be positioned. Thanks.

I might have actually seen that one. What's your username on E-bay. I would really like to know first if changing to the new manifold will solve my piping deilema so getting a few measurements will really help. I thought about swapping to a Victor X awhile back when I started the tubro project so now this might be neccessary. What throttle bodies will bolt up to the Victor X besided the Edelbrock one? I want to make it a simple bolt on process to the GSR motor so I want to make sure I get the right parts to match with the Victor X.

You know what would really help me is if you take a few measurement for me of your Victor X. Give me the dimensions of the manifold first in LxWxH. Then measure from the matting surface of the manifold where it attaches to the head to the center point of the throttle body opening. And then from the top of the valve cover to the top of the throttle body opening. That should get me to the range I need. I'm not looking for a new manifold so there is a good chance I'll buy yours if everything will fit right. Appreciate your help
