Three weeks ago i returned it to Atkins for exchange on the wrapover manifold he sells. The side manifold and weber was quite short and following this site, I decided to wrap over and add the throttle body on top of the engine. The manifold wasn't used yet and it was exchanged for 25.00 dollars.

He doesn't even mention aviation at all anymore. He also is not selling a lot of the unique items he used to sell. Looks like he is going 'meat and potatoes' engine parts. The intake I have is very short and fits a 2 barrel TWM throttle body but I believe will also fit a Webber side draft carb. I will take some pictures today at the airport, but in the mean time you can kind of see it in this early rendition of my intake. A TWM throttle body with a pair of 72cc injectors (I also have an unused pair) would work well N.A. and be very light. (I also have a matching racing air filter with adapter plate) - all you would need is the throttle body. Will take pics today. You can have my intake for $100, or you might want to take a look at the mazdatrix site, they have a few new designs you may find useful. David Leonard The Rotary Roster: http://members.aol.com/_ht_a/rotaryroster/index.html PS- Somewhere, I know I've seen a short intake, that points straight out to the side, and uses a side draft carb. I've been looking for that all morning, and can't find it now. Can anyone point me to one of these? I'm thinking it might make a good starting point for a left cheek intake.
