cheers for the kind words. if you have any idea's or constructive criticism along the way don't hold back.
wanted braided p/s hoses but couldn't get the angles to look right, made up some hard line instead, and polished that too haha.
got this nice little thing to go on when the time comes too
that's about as up to date as it is. ute currently has no interior, and just getting interest again to finish it after being out of action for 11 months. plans are to re-run all the wiring in the engine bay, fit some nice bits, and see what happens after that. really am thinking of putting some gas on on it for a bit more boogie, will see what it looks like once wiring is complete

thanks. it was built by a company called DC&O, not sure if they still do, but they used to do a bit of v8 supercar stuff. tb's are 50mm in diameter.
there are many more options out there now. I bought it probably 5 years ago, back then, the only other options I knew of was the harrop hurricane for the 241 heads.
nothing wrong with the manifold, only the finish that I'm not 100% happy with, but to have my time again I'd probably opt for a Shaun's 8tb setup, it's a complete billet item, has the vacuum chambers in the flanges, get the injectors moved to underneath, would be a sweet looking bit of gear, but when they start at $8,000 for bare manifold only, makes for an exercise you've really got to love to justify it
