Molesting the 7A-FTE..., NEW UPDATES Options

[OOBE]

New update: Been working on an intake manifold for the last two days...just experimenting and stuff. I'm not sure if it's gonna work good or not, but whatever...I've been guinea-pigging for too long to even care about the wasted money so I'm going crazy and reckless with it, LOL.

It's cool how everything starts with a bare aluminum pipe.


I'm installing ARP head studs tomorrow for extra safety and hopefully break-in the engine this week to take it to the dyno. A few pics, since I never provide visual stuff.

The weapon.


Bye-bye, EGR.


Welding the pipe to the stock manifold.




Not aiming for prettiness.


My hands are too small for belonging to a male...I know.


A teaser.


When it's properly polished, it'll look awesome. We had to fabricate a piece to be able to secure the transmission cable to the throttle body. The engineering was tricky but we achieved it.

More later.
