Correct. I have it mounted with a '91 turbo and stock turbo manifold.
Takes quite a bit of welding to put PLs manifold together, but it does fit.

Thanks John.  I just emailed PL to see if he still has the lower intake castings for sale.  I'll probably pick one up if he does, though I'd prefer a casting that went right into 2 tubes if possible.

Gee, Rusty
 
    If you put your trust in plastic, I am in the process of building a plastic manifold part that "plugs" Paul's manifold.  That will have four short tubes that plug into the aluminum manifold to provide support and merge into two outlets.  Unfortunately, they are no longer the right spacing to stick the TWM throttle body on the two 2" diam holes.  Sorry, just wasn't a design requirement at the time.
 
I can tell you that the "webber" style 4 into 2  manifold won't match up to Paul's hole spacing.
