Hows the turbo/hood clearance on that top mount mani?


The VE head valve cover will actually sit higher than the turbo itself. Nothing some hood spacers or trimming can't fix though.

The VE motor is almost finished, just in the process of degreeing the cams, etc.

Tested the clearances with my s14 SR, looks good.

This came in, along with some other minor stuff (gaskets, etc).

I want to get the car out by the first CSCS event but at the same time I don't want to rush it and fuck something up. :'(

I don't think there's any solid "types" for intake manifolds like there are for exhaust manifolds. :(

The build quality on this thing is amazing though. Completely worth the price tag.

Individual runners on the IM. People still call it a regular IM, though, maybe with "long individual runners" as opposed to a small, cast IM with no real runners.

Looks nice
