It looks from the picture, that because of the angle, the throttle body points more directly at two runners, which are slightly further away. See your second picture above. It would be interesting to see a flow test for to see how much each runner is getting.

  This is the original manifold throttle body axis orientation.  And this is the tooter et throttle body orientation.  This is why I don't believe that it was ever an issue. First because the flow is so direct, and second the runners are pulling from the plenum That's what I like most about this particular design. It completely eliminates the 90 degree "kink" runner to throttle body axis orientation found in all of the other typical plenum designs. Last edited by tooter; 06-24-2013 at 09:17 PM. |

Right now, the CNC machinist is making a base plate to connect the hemisphere to the intake runners. After that, I make the 3 tubing fittings, everything gets welded up and then I get to drive it.

The machine shop at Origin Designs made two more flanges. Their work is impeccable...
 Also got a Corolla manifold to build into another tooter.
