jup its mine,

bodies are old weber 40 casings, cut off what i didnt need, turned out new tubes and trumpets, gives a 37.5mm inside diam.

intake is a JCR or something that i modified to take injectors 230cc, fuel rail we made up, FPR is bosch from bmw, TPS is from ford mondeo.

using a gotech management system. just need to finish some wiring and finish return fuel line

so hopefully saturday it should run

How / Where did you get your manifold modified to take the fuel injectors?

If you did it yourself how hard was it? How did you do it? Did you get someone to weld the ali for you?

I keep thinking of doing the same (but keeping the 40's looking as they are for a more period look).

made it all myself

i used the sidey's intake and made little inserts, drilled out hole on the intake and had the inserts welded into it, drilled those out to 14mm to take the injectors.

u have a very valid point for keeping them more intact - with what i've learnt i would also make them look more 'old school' - if i had to do it again

here is the rail, i'll take pics of the intake over the weekend
