The manifold was made by injection perfection in bankstown, Nsw. He is located near bankstown airport. I had called them to ask if the trumpet length would lean out each cylinder differently due to the different tube lengths. It was the same base manifold as the the stack injection manifold except it was HPC coated and the trumpets were anodised and cross weaved at different lengths. Have a look at stackinjection.com.au as they may be make the manifolds with inward angled ram tubes. I was originally wanting a cross ram manifold as the tube lengths can be changed without hanging out the bonnet. The manifold chubby had was a Morrison manifold and was upwards of 7K to buy... Cheers, Matt

The length of the runners determines if the engine will high end horsepower "short length runners" or low to mid end torque "long lenght runners". The advantage you have with running a cross ram manifold is that the runner length can be changed without trumpets hanging out the bonnet. Have a look at these website http://www.morrisonoz.com/ http://www.injectionperfection.com.a...nt/view/17/72/ (http://www.injectionperfection.com.au/content/view/17/72/) http://www.stackinjection.com.au/ Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Morrisons ftw. That's what was on chubby's car They are the best money can buy. In saying that chubby is now developing his own stack injection manifold.
