x16xe inlet for bike tbs!

[alan b]

just got a bowyer(?!) inlet manifold for carbs for a x16xe cheap. could i just cut this up to make an inlet for bike tbs? and which tbs have the right spacing for an x16xe?

[Adam]

None have the right spacing, as there not meant go on a 16xe inlet..
You can make them fit tho, you need a set that have adjustable spacing.

Whats the inlet look like? Like a DCOE inlet?

ya its for seperate runners, it curves upwards, and its black, it has the water pipe and servo things on it so thaut it would be handy!

[Adam]

To fit bike tb's you'd need to hack the hell out of it and cut the bolting flange off.

[Stuart]

erm it would be a crime to cutup a bowyer manifold... sell it then get ripped off by bogg bros for a bike tb spec one.

I trust youve got a mappable ecu to setup the TB's etc...

why are bowyer manifolds good? how much would it be worth? got all the o rings with it!

[Stuart]

bowyer (and jre) are the dogs bollocks of engine tuners for GM engines..... ergo the inlet will be facking good etc... too good (and valuable) to cut up.

[alan b]

so if i got i handy and decide not to use it you think i shud pay for it anyway and keep it? the lad said i can have the loan of it to see if i want it first! how much are these manifolds then?

[craig green]

Is that a Plenum for the std inj? Like a variation on the Mantzel theme.....

[alan b]

no its a carb manifold like for webers or similar!
