              I may be pushing the boundaries for what some may consider 'fabrication', but in my book this counts. These are a set of custom manifold brackets to mount S54 throttle bodies onto the 885 m20 head. They provide a smooth transition between the ports of the throttle bodies and the head. I started by designing them in a 3D CAD program, then made the patterns for the sand molds, pounded the molds, poured and machined the castings.

              Version two that I'm working on now will have larger mounting area on the head side as well as injector bungs in the stock M20 location and the correct Oil Drain in the center manifold.

                I don't see why that wouldn't count as fabrication, that is awesome! Have you had a running engine with those mounted yet?

                  Not yet, it's a small part of a much larger build. When it's all said and done they'll be on my bored and stroked 3.2L M20 (10.5:1 CR, Shrick 288, Billet rockers etc etc). I'm still afraid they will be to large a diameter though, so I may look at using some bike throttle bodies.

                            that looks great, over engineered like hell, but it looks great.

                            tink, you need to make more of those adapters and sell them.... and please sell them for only a few hundred bucks. :D

                              Maybe when I get done with version two, I want to make it so you can use the stock M20 fuel rail and pressure regulator. Also need to come up with some kind of plenum, although I suppose you could just use it with an Alpha-N tune.
