Re: wierd inlet manifold?????

You've got a Lynx crossover weber manifold. They are excellent for a road car using L18 or L20 engines.  The cross over is to get more continuous flows in each runner, making the car easier to tune, particularly jetting the carb.   ----- Original Message ----- From: damien cm To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, 25 February 2002 12:53 PM Subject: wierd inlet manifold????? Hi, I got a inlet manifold and a single sidedraught DHLA45 Dellorto over the weekend. The manifold is to suit a L18 and is not like your average manifold. The two outside runners (1 and 4) go to one side of the carb, and the two inners go the other side(2 and 3). The runners don't go straight from the closest carb barrel to the inlet ports. The brand is LYNX, not sure where it is made. I am not sure why,but could it have something to do with the motor 'sucking' fuel/air mixture alternately from each barrel of the carb, instead of 2 sucks on one side and then 2 on the other? I s it worth keeping(I have a conventional one already on the car with a 45 s/s weber. If it is of a L18 can I bolt it to a L20?
