Well,This is a varient of the intakes for the 24v throttle bodies-Good work Dawie de Villiers!!

I believe these are for 2 engines destined for the usa for 2 75 milano`s

John van Reenen, let us know how these work! I think they could sound awesome!!

Hey Barry,

It's John van Rensburg and these ARE the engines for me.... (and Jes Thyssen) down in California to put into two Milano track cars...

EK en jy het ontmoet verlede maand daar by Dawie! Onthou jy nie? Ek was nou net in SA... Ek is 'n boertjie van lang tyd terug. Ek het daar op Kromdraai groot geword naby Zwartlops, maar ek het in Pretoria gebly vir so 3-4 jaar tot ek Amerika to getrek het in '89....

Any way yes, Dawie is developing the new T-body setups that I will be marketing for him here in the US on our engines...

When Dawie, Domingo and maybe Martin Steyn come over next summer (US summer) for the last of the big annual national Alfa Romeo conventions (hosted here in Seattle), you should come with them....

Here is a close-up of the gear-driven link between the two sets of T-bodies - much better than the Jenvey setup IMHO... The links between 6 detached units is so flimsy compared to the single brass shaft that connects three to a side....

6 Throttle Bopdies;

We still may do some flex connections to the plenums from the runners, but we wanted to get the fit done first!

It will make changing plugs easier, but we'll run platinum tips, so, what? Every 50K to 100K miles I have to remove them.... I'll be inspecting them at least that often any way...

Hey Hot Legs Barry! Do you have a pic of the 6 ITBs with the plenums off? (I want to save my brother a trip back over there... (That square lawyer only knows how to step on the gas!)

Guys,If youre running a turbo or anything bigger than a 2.5 ,considder the intakes-Those 3.2 and 3.5 12v engines out there,they need these big runners-period.

The good news is that with an adaptor plate they will fit a 24v engine as well.

E-mail me for more info please.

Come on Barry, out with the price of the runners! What with Xmas coming, I figure I can make me a present and get both the runners and the mfi-pro IF the total price is under a million!
Regards,
Jim K.
