Awesome, you got my attention and my mind is stirring. How thick are the runner walls? I am thinking injectors.

The manifold has 0 taper in it.  The front of the manifold is set up for throttle body, with slight down taper for t-bird hood clearance.   The manifold is set up for injectors now,  the dividers are held low enough for the injectors to fire across the manifold  at the mouth of the runner.  This is the straightest shot for the fuel  and give more distance for the fuel to atomize and take the natural course of the runner.  The bigger cam you run the farther the injector needs to be from the valve to help with scavenging issues.  This manifold is built to be versatile and let your imaginations go to work.   We have our uses and variation that we will sell it in.   But you guys can do what ever you can think of as well.

 Some steps have been taken with this manifold to try and help those guys who want to run a single 4 barrel as well. Trying to keep the majority fuel from going down into the center 4 cylinders, and actually be able to perimeter the floor of  was the main objective.  We do NOT plan to sell it as a single 4 barrel but we are pretty sure someone is going to try it.

When will it be available to the public?  Pricing range?  Is there a waiting list?

There are only 3 pieces right now.  We just got them yesterday.  These first articles will be used for EMC testing.  And machine programming.   We are trying like hell to get one sent to Ted on Sept. 1st.
  We are going to machine some heads in early August because the machine is set up and ready to go for that.  Hopefully we can have the tooling built to hold the manifold and start programming in mid August.
 Hopefully units will be available to the general public by late October or early November.

That manifold looks great from my end.  Being designed specifically for the stacked ports in the heads definitely makes for a new look but that’s what it’s going to take to get that next step up in performance.  It will be interesting to see how the power curve is improved when tested.

Looking good guys.  If all goes well, I’ll have my engine short blocked later this morning.  If everything really clicks, I’ll have the engine on the dyno tomorrow.  I had a hiccup with the the lead time on the connecting rods and had to change gears midstream which is forcing me to run a 375 incher versus the 401 incher that was originally planned.
 
Any word on how Jerry Christenson’s build is coming along?
