I am trying to put the FI back on my engine and I have gotten to the point where I am mocking up manifolds and plenum.
Here is what I know. I have a bigger 2.0 plenum, I have a motor that I was told is a 2.0 that has been rebuilt. I have 4 bolt intake tubes, but they hit the engine tin, and look like they are too long for the plenum. I am guessing those are for a 1.7. Not sure. What intake tubes do I need. Are they 2.0 only, or did the 1.8 use the same plenum as the 2.0? |

He might have a 2.0L Mike. 2L bus heads have 4 bolt intake.
What's the #on the case? |

QUOTE(The Cabinetmaker @ Aug 7 2014, 04:54 AM)  He might have a 2.0L Mike. 2L bus heads have 4 bolt intake. But the Bus 2.0 did not use the 914 intake manifolding, so that doesn't really matter. If you want to use the 2.0 plenum, you can either get 2.0 intake runner pipes and re-drill the mounting holes, or you can get some 1.8 intake runner pipes and cut them off shorter so they fit with the 2.0 plenum. The 1.7 pipes are a smaller diameter than the others. --DD |

The heads are stamped from GEX as well. The motor had been purchased in the mid 80's and left next to the car where it was when I bought it all. It had no induction on it. Since the car was originally a 1.7 this may be why the project never got any farther. |
