idle bypass? I no longer have an ICV at all. The idle speed on these is controlled by a small bypass screw on each throttle body.Leave a comment:

with forced induction it won't be a problem, with N/A it possibly could.
I have enough material to build a second plenum so if this one works how I want. I'll replicate it but get it TIG welded:DLeave a comment:

Wow dude, thats doin work right there. I think the velocity stacks would be a good addition.
Do you think your gonna have any cylinder filling problems with the one size pipe plenum getting air from the front? (i dont have the slightest when it comes to intake manifolds)
Im impressed how it came out with the tools your using.
When is somebody gonna get this dude a TIG machine?!
Keep it up!
That m20's going to look puny in the engine bay!!!!! Its so short!!!!Leave a comment:

nope going manual brakes. Already have the brake pedal modified to increase the leverage ratio ;)
But I could go with a hydraulic booster setup easily, and have most of the parts to do so.Leave a comment:

Looking good .
Are you not using a brake booster on the car this is going on ?Leave a comment:

Ok plenum fabbed up. I used some aluminum brazing rod to connect the runners to the large pipe, and got a good solid connection on 3 of them, but the other 3 popped loose so I doubled everything up with a layer of JB weld also. Just waiting for the epoxy to dry, then I have to sand it all smooth, prime and paint it tomorrow.
Doesn't look so pretty right now, but should clean up nicely once it's painted
Only thing I have left to do is mount the air temp sensor and figure out the throttle cable
And I'm thinking of hacking some plastic motorcycle velocity stacks up and mounting them inside the plenum at the end of each runner.

Ok, just got 8' of aluminum pipe for making the runners today. Just waiting on the large pipe for the plenum to put it all togetherLeave a comment:
