Thanks Terry
The bluey seems to have the throttlebody connecting
to the manifold much lower on a different angle....
(sort of under the much shorter radiator hose...)
maybe better suited to having the intercooler hoses coming
up from a lower position in the front?.. whereas Jake's one
seems more horizontal (over the radiator hose)...? or is it
just me??
I was thinking that the one in the bluebird was from a
factory intercooled car?
regards
James
