Scored these off Ebay, was hoping someone on here could tell me who made them?

I was already playing around with putting them on the 67. Trying to figure out what intake manifolds I need, since I don't run superflow style heads... They seem to fit OK just sitting on the superflow manifolds in the pic, which are pretty short. I run a 36hp style shroud so I have plenty of room.

Dunno. No numbers/letters at all? Don't forget to use velocity stacks inside those plenums...

Maybe, but the anodizing goes down in the injector holes some. I suppose they could have been modified for the injectors, then anodized.

Anyone have any recommendations on some intakes that will bring them inboard some?

Some parts look like a local supplier, but it's unlikely to see them in USA.
I say use them! (With velocity stacks - they're wort 100 horses on a turbocharged 2 litre engine)

I guess my picture was decieving Mark... it's not a race car by any means. Shroud and tins are off because I'm building a turbo header and I need to pull the motor to fix an oil leak.

I'm thinking about a pair of type 3 intakes but will have to ditch my denso coil on plug setup.

I noticed that the injectors spray onto the throttle plate...not a very good design. Not familiar with those though.

I think thats why they have the holes in the throttle blades. Probably didn't idle very well.

Holes in the throttle plate will give you a pretty high idle with no way to get it down...how big are the holes?
