I bought these 3 weeks ago to assist eliminating tuning and defect issues. But the problems have been fixed without fitting these parts. And now I need funds to help pay the bill.

And the manifold was new when i bought it. It is a greddy replica. I'm trying to make this obvious because the guy tried to sell it to me as a genuine item. Anyway.. I have spent about 10 hours polishing the runners in the manifold because I wasn't happy with the casting finish. I never tried to port it bigger, I just took enough off to make the surfaces smooth.

Throttle body sold

Manifold dropped SOLD

I bought these together so I didn't think of seperate prices. But since the manifold is $350, I will sell the throttle body for $250

Now dropping price to $550 for both.

Pics tomorrow maybe. I will try to borrow a camera.

;) polished inside :P

Polished internal runners cause fuel to form droplets which can result in idling issues. It is best to leave the inside of runners rough to prevent this from happening.

How can that be when the fuel is injected at the end of the runners right at the inlet face of the head. Fuel would not even touch the runners. All I have done is stop some turbulance buy removing shitty casting finishes. Had the casting been neat like the rest of the manifold I would not have cared.

Maybe it happenes with other manifolds but not this one.

    • Robertson was a Canadian inventor, and it absolutely reigns supreme here. 95% of our screws are Roberston. It's literally the only option you can buy off store shelves. What would it have lost out too? I believe it's also very popular in the US.  My reference to imperial was pointed to both NPT and BSP. 
    • No. BSP lost to the cultural/technical imperialism of living next to Trumpistan. Face it, Robertson screws were better and still pretty much lost out to the yank stuff. The Europeans hate the Brits and they don't use NPT. NPT is just as "imperial" as BSP is, being based on those useless inch thingos. Just done differently. 
    • I live in Quebec. Our license plate slogan is "Je me souviens" Translated is "We will remember" as a reminder to when England conquered us and that we must never forget what they did. Long story short, BSP is unheard of here due to being an English design. I'm surprised our nazi anti english government office the OQLF hasn't kicked in my door yet just talking about it, yet alone imperial anything.       
    • Thanks for that! I did a quick Google search looked up some of hydaulic stores and didn't see it listed on the website, I'll give them a ring. Also found out later that I can buy 2 oem bleeder bolts for 10 bux and come with the washer which I might do so I don't waste the money it costs in petrol to find 2 washers (already did that lol). The old copper washes look in good nick, I drove it after taking it off and putting it back on and didn't see any  Part number here for reference if anyone needs: 14053-42L0A
