Standard Airbox Bracket With 4 Branch Manifold

Recommended Posts

Juttie205

As title I want to use the standard airbox but have a 4 branch manifold and i know the bracket that i dont have yet bolts to standard manifold so not sure if im going to have to make some bits to be welded onto my exhaust or what do people do when they are not running the standard manifold.

Was thinking the same myself. The k and n set up looks chav and a bodge imo.

Have thought of doing the same in the future...I'd probably measure and weld some small brackets on. The standard design is terrbile as the bolts snap off in the blind holes.

Don't have a pic but if you have a standard manifold to look at you can't miss it...two small mounting points on the branches. Think the bracket also fixes to the rear of the head though I can't remember that exactly.

Some strong steel flat bar welded onto a branch on one side and with a hole on the other...use a nut and bolt rather than having a blind screw hole. Should be straightforward to do!

Think i have come up with a design made from the aid of a bit of c.a.d just got to get some stainless sheet and make one out of metal.

Steve asked me to look at this for his 309. I was planning to try and make something to hang that side of the airbox off the lug at the back of the cylinder head, to keep the exhaust heat away from the airbox, I have not yet mocked it up to have a look though.
