Taht going to clear your elbow that bolts to the intake?

Oh yeah, you're putting the EFI injectors on the bottom. Why'd you do that again?
You could have put the primary injectors on top and used a set of NOSzles to pipe in the N2O.

I wanted the EFI on top with a conventional fuel rail, but the bosses were too small to use EFI injectors, and the fact that the two outer bosses are angled outward would have complicated things more. Hence, Frankenstein was born.The Dark Side of Will wrote:Oh yeah, you're putting the EFI injectors on the bottom. Why'd you do that again?

I thought about using NOSzles but was turned off by all the trouble that Purple Reign was having with them. Shaun, didn't you have NOSzles on your 2.8 for a while? It would've looked totally trick, but there's still something I have in mind for my manifold after my engine proves itself and I don't have other things to worry about.
I think it turned out well regardless:

Dude, it looks fantastic! Right on.

what materials did you use to do this?? Is it just stainless steel tubing? Also, what tool? I don't like my pipe bender, and whatever you are using is obviously a decent tool.

Yeah, it's stainless tubing, Russel Endura aluminum fittings on the nozzles and steel compression fittings at the blocks.
As for the tube bender....$10 POS from from the local hardware store. It was adequate.
It took me a while to get everything just right. Since the kit was for a V8, I had 16 extra tubes from the start. I finished with 2 extras. Thank goodness I only had to make 2 bends and one cut.

I was contemplating putting the dis blocks all the way down in the space in the intake between the two middle ports, which would've yielded a kick-ass looking setup which would've been impossible for me to plumb. But, maybe I'll get some more tubes some day and do it how I want it.

That distribution block looks like it is going to interfere with your intake or tb bolting on top of the edelbrock intake. Yes?

It shows.... :salute: :salute: :salute:Indy wrote: Indy <--- Super-anal perfectionist

that's some sweet wallpaper on your dishwasher...

It's gonna be close, I'll have to use a max of 3/4" flange on the manifold with low-pro bolts or studs to clear the lowest tubes. You can see in the first pic where I still had the studs in the intake from mocking up my TB adapter.Shaun41178(2) wrote:That distribution block looks like it is going to interfere with your intake or tb bolting on top of the edelbrock intake.

Should go like that, so the TB adapter will be angled aft. Even if I do it facing the drivers side, it should still clear a thin carbon elbow, a cast elbow from Wilson Manifolds might be pushing it.
The wallpaper is, I think, an extremely dramatic touch that really makes the dishwasher stand out from others. It was professionally applied by my mum.
