Thanx, great links... I was hoping for a local supply, or if someone has the info required, as in they made a manifold and used a certain type of T/B`s etc, or I was thinking of using an EA centrepoint injection set up on my webber manifold, but it still needs tweaking anyway as the EA body is wider

On the crossflow pushrod engine,Jenvey are a complete must the only throttle bodies used in Ireland and Uk rallying.Wouldnt recomend fabricating your own manifold,save yourself the hassle and buy one deisgned specifically for your engine. Also the twin bore throttle bodies are the ones to use on the crossflow with exterior fuel rail and 4 seperate injectors. To improve torque go for individual throttle bodies.

I honestly have no clue about the EA centre point,i presume its a single point injection system.
