That is exactly what their intentions are. Crissi mentioned a couple of ideas they had about upper manifolds. One of which is a plenum on the end of those runners, coupled on with hose sections as mine is, then one large tube feeding the plenum up through the center (i.e. the large tube would lay parallel to the runners shown and couple to the manifold in the space between runners 2 and 3). The other would continue on across the engine to the other side, still another option would be to feed it from the front or rear based on cowl clearance and airframe.

They could probably make an upper manifold with throttle body that is bi-directional, so that it could be used for a tractor or pusher aircraft depending on which way you pointed the upper manifold or needed the throttle body to end up.

Very nice...does anyone know what they envision hooking up to the runners? 
 
Is their goal to next create an upper manifold that will attach to this lower manifold, and also accept a throttle body?
