V6 intake manifold

[VPCalais38]

I saw some twin throttle body intakes for the V6 in Australia but I cant find them. It had 2x plenums with throttle bodies facing forward.
The runners to the heads crossed one another so the plenum for the right head was on the left side and vice versa.
May have only been for ecotec's.

Here are some, but they aren't cheap and they aren't like you described:twin throttle bodies, twin throttle, twin throttle body, Car Parts, Accessories items at low prices on eBay.com.au
Here is another:Twin throttle body performance manifold to suit a VN Series 2-VR V6 engine.
But wait, there's more:Walker Performance- Project Gallery

The walker on the top right on the page is the one you are thinking of. I don't think they are in production anymore unless maybe if you pay up up front or something

You'd have to move the alternator for that setup wouldnt you?

[VPCalais38]

Yeh you probably would have to shift the alternator. Which is where I run into problems.
A disco potato (well a super 70) is going on it soon and so I will most likely be removing the aircon. Which is one spot I was going to mount the alternator. Am going to have to have a good look around the bay and see where I can stick the turbo and alternator so everything will fit.

Got a mate who is a machinist and wants to help me build a manifold like that (The Walky one).
Thank god cause I cant weld aluminium for sh*t. :P

hey just curious 2 how much a twin throttle would b and if the wreckers have them?? i got quoted $12,000 which i think is a bit of a rip off... anyone??

[1991_Vn2nV]

Some of the more basic ones sell for around a grand, good luck finding one at the wreckers (why would they have them anyway?) though...

No real performance benefit there to be had though on anything mildly modified or stock.

I have a turbo I want to fit and want to feed the turbo into the twin throttles. Should look mean. Dont know if much of a benefit. But give me something to do.

[greenfoam]

Waste of time having a fancy manifold and a turbo really, unless you are making long runners to spool faster

[VPCalais38]

Yes true.

It would look good and thats all really.
Thanks for the reality check greenfoam.
