The inlet manifold on my 4.3 is definitly modified. Not enlarged just ported and matched.

Carbon stuff looks good though )

Tim,

Do you do a carbon fibre "twin plenum" as I believe was fitted to the Rover Vitesse? If not, I presume the single carbon plenum is more efficient?

Also, what air-flow meter do you recommend? I think Mark Adams usually goes for a Jag V12?

It's next on the list after some decent brakes.

Regards,

Ian A.

Yes we can now produce twin or triple throttle carbon plenums with new wide bases, i recommend the Jag or Rangerover 4.6 air meter for 5.0L engines.

I have had my trumpets shortened, have to check by how much. What gain is there on the carbon over shortened originals? Not likley to change after what has been done to mine, just curious.

I'd also like to know if it makes much difference to a 4.0 V8 -- last time I enquired, I was told the breathing of this size of engine is pretty much OK as is.

I got an extra 30-35 BHP on my 3.9 from stage III heads, cam and ACT induction with a Mark Adams setup afterwards.

Hmmm, you interest me strangely.

Should be a fairly cost-effective upgrade too -- as in cheaper than taking the engine to bits and fitting new camshafts etc...

Re-read the list of mods, the mods did include a camshaft change. But the bottom end was left alone.

Oops -- missed that little 'cam' word...!
