Like you all said, it's about the packaging. The subject will drive one nuts.

All this science is way over my head. But it did make me feel that I should be doing something. The head showed a few small cracks at the exhaust flange side and Zenon took it to work to weld it and machine it flat again. That was about 5 weeks ago. meanwhile I got a new lens in my right eye. needed to renew my driving license. Should be a piece of cake. Going on 4 weeks and the eye still hasn't healed. But anyway Here is what I did to pass the time and make it look like I had a plan.

HP books  Engine Airflow by LR.com  member Harold Bettes; on  page 107 shows some very interesting picts.  of  manifolds by Marcella Manifolds-- they have a website.  There is a picture of a "drastically modified" SBF single plane manifold.

Once again posting pictures has proven more difficult that making the part. Here I hope is the other picture. If nothing else it looks faster.

I was going to just bolt the injectors on and run them. But Mikes pictures made me feel like to much of an underachiever. And i was bored.
