Turbo manifold ends question...(dome part)

[Volky]

A friend of mine is looking for this in the USA:

Marty Staggs makes those.

Pretty sure Marty doesn't make those anymore. He runs Turbosmart now.
Shag Leone makes them. Google SL-1

[panel]

Turbosmart makes intake manifolds like those in the pic ?

[slowsixtyduece]

As gbaker said, Shag makes them or can make them custom. He does nice work too. His add on the samba can be found below:

Thank you all,

Will check.

What is the advantage of the plenum? Are there velocity stacks in there?

There is a ton of info out there.....some have velocity stacks in there.Most links are from inline but you get the idea.

I built mine based on this theory....

the volume of an intake plenum generally matches the displacement of an engine. This means if an engine displaces 500 cubic inches, then the volume inside the plenum is typically going to also have a volume of around 500 cubic inches. Under this type of design, ideally no cylinder is starved for air because the volume inside the plenum is enough to fill all the cylinders simultaneously.

If the volume of the intake plenum is not properly matched and is too small for the application, an engine could develop a stall or sluggish response from an engine at the starting line or after each shift, as combustion events literally draw all the available air from the manifold faster than it can be filled by incoming air. Engines with too small of a plenum may perform well at lower RPM but suffer as RPM increases.
