Bridge-tastic Rebuild pics!

We are building a 13b with custom inlet manifold using throttle bodies. We got a set of Gixer 1000 throttle bodies which have stock injector fittings, i think they around 50mm.  They are also the right spacing and are linked already

cool any pics?

[antnicuk]

its in bits at the moment,  using a porka V8 inlet manifold to get the ali bends

[dubber91]

interesting......still would love some pics!

ya reckon 55mm jenveys would work alright though? They would bolt straight onto the manifold i have

Cool.........

O I AM TOLD! the reason i dont want to speculate is that i am only 95% sure it is them. I cannot be sure and therefore i dont want to throw stones in this metaphorical glass house.....if you follow...

I decided against the turbo. Apart from certain packaging problems, i felt the thermodynamic issue was far to great for me to be arsed with.
The turbo required work, the intercooler cooling, the ECU wiring.
So i figured why the hell not go for a big carbed bridgey using the 4 port turbo II irons as these are easier to port.
This way everythings nice and simple, easy to cool, and less of a hassle to install.

Make sense?

[antnicuk]

definately, especially if its not a really a road car.
