 Re: nice setup
my guess is that there is an SU manifold under there, i reckon that would be the ideal way to do a suck through supercharger

but i hate suck through setups really
BLOW BLOW BLOW dammit

Looks like a standard manifold has been cut up and adapted to the two pipes somehow.

Looks a bit rough to me and wouldn't flow very well.

It doesn't need to flow very well. I'm sure it has more torque than a stock A-engine, though I'm not sure he'd have more top HP. That single carb is going to limit the HP, turbo or not.

Interesting ... a single SU carb, in front of the turbo (draw-through).

The intake manifold plenum is next to the strut tower:
- connected to turbo outlet by very small diameter pipe?
- has two feeds back down underneath to the intake ports?
