Sup all. I need the 2 manifolds from one of your guys' old motors. K8 Or KLD/ZE from my understanding there almost identical.. So far i've got a intercooler, boost controller and I have a Garret T3 on the way to my house....Im still sourcing an a/f meter, boost gauge and BOV <getting parts where I live is a b---->..and I got a trick up my sleeve for fuel delivery. Anyways I need your old manifolds for this, any donor's?<P>Boosted K8....soon

what are you using to control timing? How much boost on the T3 are you expecting to run?

Or are you buying new ones incase of accident or it doesn't work? I'm sure you can go to your local auto wrecker and get some off an MX-6 or PGT.

I would like to run 8 psi with the stock ignition...The reason i would like extra manifolds is to have as little downtime as possible with the welding.

Well I first thought that I could just adjust the dist, but then I did a little researching and learned the computer will automatically return to its normal setting on these cars, correct?? Is there an easy way to retard timing? besides an ignition system...maybe a way to trick the computer
