I can relate to that already, and I'm only just starting to dig myself into the big hole...I'm already wondering if there is ever going to be an end to it. I doubt there will be. :)

Looks just like mine!

Did the old manifold have a soot build up around the 4th and 5th cyclinder? Has it been pressure tested??

Yea although smaller its input is centre. So evenly displaced over the 6.
A mate I built one for a while ago needed some 28ltrs in his 4.2 ford motor. Was a huge intake, ill see if I can find a pic of it.

petrol and diesel ar different animals bigger isnt better for diesel, its only air, you need to fill that space, compress it and use it.

Your right, bit the concept of having enough supply to allow maximum flow to each cylinder is the same.

all im trying to acheive primaraly is to try and even out the heat from been directed at the centre two pistons, hopefully this will just limit the congestion of hot air compared to the standard intake manifold.....
