I will not be able to pay for one of these for at least 6-8 weeks, but am interested.

I really would like info on a snout like that for an M90 Eaton, or it may not be worth me ordering.

Lou

I have seen the snouts from 1" thru 11 1/4 " .The manifold comes UNDRILLED so you can install most any manufacturers blower.

Hi all, Ok if there is another group buy we will send what ever you need. 2 barrel,4 barrel,blower manifold, plenum heaters, gaskets, or even a jar of vegemite for those who know what it is.. since the last group buy went of no problems Ray & I are more than happy to do a east coast & a West coast shipment & if any of the Canadians require a shipment we can help you out also. Now the blower manifolds are finished. There will be a few small details we need to address before we can give the pricing.. The manifold was made to accept the yella terra " Terra Charger" It is a m90 eaton style super charger available in axial {intake at the rear} or helical {intake on the top}. When we first started designing a range of manifolds to suit the terra charger we had a good relationship with the sales manager at YT & all was running smooth.. He has since left & there is restructuring going on there & production of the housing has slowed until they can get every thing on track..
I hope soon to be able to supply prices on the following
Complete super charger in axial
Complete blower in radial
a complete kit incl blower,manifold,drive pulleys etc
Drive snout to fit correct length
Idler bracket Belt tensioner
crankshaft pully
Harmonic balancer
An adaptor to run a B&M 144 blower
If we have problems getting supply of the terra charger you will be able to use the Ford V6 M90 blower with an adapter to change the bolt pattern to suit the 4 external bolt holes on the AussieSpeed manifold.
I hope to have a website up on the AussieSpeed site relating to the blower conversions,kits & parts including what 2nd hand blowers can be used..
regards Mark

IF possible I would like to see another pic with a better view of the snout support, it'll probably be my decision maker or breaker. I would probably be using a M90 rear mount carb.

BTW, after getting one of these (2bbl version), I am quite skeptical that these cast in injector bosses will be thick enough to handle EFI injectors. Looks like bungs will have to be welded in on maybe half of the ports or maybe all.

I am a bit disappointed.

I would say these need to be thicker in order to handle standard bosch style port EFI injectors. N2O nozzles will be fine.

I will look at these again, but I'm not optimistic.

Doc, what do you think? Anyone else?

Thanks,

Lou

That wont be a product of the manifold. I would think you would fab what ever you need based on what type and style of blower you use.

Yeah I'm with Lou. I was worried about that plus when they machined the slots for the washers it looked a bit deep. I worry about this when I start to port match it.

Yes,
I made the same suggestion and even did some "mock-up work" to show the larger bung size. Sounds like that change did not get implimented.

Yes, those notches are also too deep for the washers. Not sure why they ground that much.

I know I'm an oddball with the EFI, but more people are doing this. I eventually will have all my Slants port EFI'ed.

This is really a simple change to make on the manifolds, and they must not have done EFI on one of these or they would have run into this problem. It's possible it will work as is, but it will be really tight.

Lou

Now that we are in the closing stages of this buy, could the leader confirm the instructions for taking part one more time? I am in for a 4bbl with a water heater box, since I just sold my Clifford, it is a must that I get the program right.

Thanks,
S Scamp
