well i put these babies together for my sohc drag car and i think they will help out tremendously especially up top. its made using 4 stock t-bodies (52mm) and an aftermarket manifold base (indy) cause i dont have any flanges yet im gonna throw them on my DD first just to see what comes of them........ i know one thing, the sound is gonna be insane. lets hear some comments guys.

oh and i still need to get stacks too

 

DAmn Nice WOrkkkk
lists of how u made it? how long it took? etc

 

looks good , but that bend will kill you a little up top. is there anyways you can cut and weld to get rid of the bend senction? you can make up the length with the stacks. UNLESS this is not a full blown drag car than you'll be fine. where did you buy the TB's or what did they come from?

 

Cool manifold.

I don't think you could measure a difference on the dyno between what you have and 100% straight runners, honestly, people just love to nit pick.

I think I am dreaming.... Those pics are so blurry...haha Any pics of it before you assembled the unit together, and those are factory lower runners with a plate welded on top, right? Looks great

 

Looks nice

 

looks good to me. be sure to post some results on how well they work.

 

Lookin good man.....more real pics though...those dreamy ones are makin me tired.

 

well on my car the intake sits in the front and i will be cutting a hole in the hood so these things will have a ram air effect, so i dont think the bend will hurt anything. yes a did weld a plate onto the runners and bolted the t-bodies to the plate and i cant stand the way the pics came out either its my camera, ill take some outside in the daylight and post them up. the tobodies are matched to the ports and they are opend up quite a bit, this thing is gonna to flow.

 

That's a cool setup

Makes me think of those fuzzy glamour shots to make ugly people less ugly.

 

oh they are glamorous weather the pic is fuzzy or not.

 

What engine do those throttle bodies come on?

They look like the stock 52mm dodge 2.2 throttle bodies.

any 95-99 automatic dodge neon (manual neons had 49mm t-bodys)

 

 

heres some much better pics for u guys that wanted them..............

 

DAMN....a thing of beauty

 

That looks like a real good idea, and fairly cheap I'd expect. Dodge i4's always seem to have issues holding torque above 4000rpm, I's expect anything to improve VE above that will help a lot.

 

alot of time and thought was put into how i would make it work like this and making it.............. especially the throttle linkage............ i wanted it to be different (and have a little more intersting a of a throttle setup) thats why i did it this way instead of how everyone elso does theres, well most other ones u see out there anyways.

 

videos and installed pics coming up here in few.

 

ok its up and running.......... might not be as impressive as some of these big hp vtec motors but this thing excites the hell out of me

i had just took it for a test drive..........

in car acceleration vid and vid of me opening up the t-bodies while idling........

driving fairly normal on the way back from the video above......

and heres pics.............

 

i love this!!! i am wondering what kind of welding did you use?? when you mounted the throttle bodies, did you make a link for all of the throttle bodies?

 

tig........... and i made the linkge to connect all of the throttle bodies and they are right on
