I have been using early Aerovee intake manifolds since I built the plane. I have never really liked them as they did not have enough area to clamp the hose to. I always safety wired them to keep them from them from coming apart in flight.
Since my manifolds do not properly align with the ports on my new heads, I decided to build a new set of intake manifolds.
I got a set of intake flanges from GPAS for $6.95 and two 1.5" U-Bend exhaust tubes for $9 a piece.
I center punched and pilot drilled the U tubes and used a 1.5" hole saw to cut the tubes into sections. Pretty simple, I have about 10 min invested until this point.
More to come as I make progress...
