If you want a pair of those "bell mouths" I could gift you with a
couple. I got them from Atkins thinking I could use them on my setup.
But there just isn't room.  A problem with the straight in manifold
from Atkins is just that - it sticks straight out. Sticking out isn't
a problem on a box nosed RV - but for us pushers - we're trying to
taper the cowl to a point in the back to let our fans breath. As it is
I had to put a little bump on my cowl to accommodate the fuel rail.

Thanks for the picture of Atkin's intake manifold/installation,
Joe....I was
considering the bell mouths for the intakes, now I see what they
look like
and have an idea of xsize, etc.  Thanks again for taking the time to
find
and send the picture.  Paul Conner
