    I know this fits on all the LX's fine. But I'll have to see what changes need to be made for the Jeeps.

    Cam, when are you going to drill an intake so you can put a temperature probe at the #8 intake port?

    [don't want to hijack this until Cam gets back on the temp probe... he's so elusive :fear:. but]

    That's a great idea. If you went all out you could put jets everywhere and wouldn't have to worry about heat soak. Turn it on a bit before a run and bingo, it's just like it's 50* outside. Only thing I'd be worried about is the long term effects of everything expanding and contracting from relatively abrupt temperature changes.

    Ya see these

    Those are the size of nuts when it comes to drilling my manifold. After the port work, it's just to thin.

    Yup, it's a killer idea. Matter of fact, the next unit another member and myself are working on is directly related to the same basic idea. But I think we have something that may work much better for the heat exchanger portion.

    Drill somebody else's manifold. Like one of the ones getting a price break for testing the prototype CAI. Small hole for a little bit of data collection which will be easily plugged after... Otherwise we'll be wondering forever just how much the air heats up going through a hot manifold. It is one of the pressing questions of the universe after all.
