Just purchased one for myself so this is todays "present for self" tip

Clickedydoodah

Wow i love it


What is it though?

What does it look like Proccy?
















No?













It's not food


















It's an inlet manifold

^^^^^^ laughing so hard it hurts!!!! ^^^^^^

Well done Begbie.

Well done.

If you come ace tomorrow, I will reward your best comment of 2012!!!

Brilliant!!!!

What difference it's going to make and is it straight forward DIY job?

Its the best flowing factory inlet for the turbo versions of the Lampredi Twincam, and outflows a standard head a fair bit with some minor porting.
Its suposed to be bolt on with some minor grinding,

It is not bolt on - take some cutting&welding, be prepared

what exactly needs to be welded?

Injectors catch on the lugs that the standard manifold braces are bolted to. Nice manifold though lacking a bit in internal sizes. The measured airflow is pretty good though the standard necks can be ported to beat it by a long way.

Thats what ive heard, need to grind down the lugs.
Cant see where i need welding though?

for 300e?

toooooo expensive...:)

I have purchased one years ago for 50e, and few weeks ago whole kappa engine for 200e:) (and of course 2 engines from thema VIS with very simmilar intake manifold for 100e these engines are here for almost everybody recognized like scrap metal...)

No Lampredi engine is scrap metal Honza
I paid 110 for mine, think thats a good deal.
The one in the link is new in box with all sensors injectors etc.

+ cut two peaces on cilindar head where injector rail is held on coupe because on kappa rail is held on manifold, position of MAP sensor, coils, angle on induction pipe, position for idle control and position for acceleration cable needs to be modified

i noticed that GOZZOLI in Italy makes an uprated inlet

that allow four throttle bodies

Not the easiest of sites to browse, but do you mean this?

That looks very similar to a manifold I have, mine has Guy Croft branding cast into it.

yes this is for single throttle body

Ok, ill be moving the battery in the trunk and will be relocating the other bits so i think
ill be ok. Did you get any meassurements on performance vs the coupe one?
Did you port yours?

Is that you Erik ?


Has your clyinder head had any work done to improve it, you havent said ?

not sure about performance because after IC, tubular exhaust and kapa inlet car is not properly mapped yet

a similar way to make power

Here's another

That looks great 1NRO

Amazing even, the attention on detail hmmm.

Nice nice nice!

KJ LIKES THIS!

8 injectors, eh? Has this manifold been used 'in anger' yet, so to speak?

Thanks :-)

No data reported back, yet. There's a few out there so at some stage I'll hear.
