Building a custom manifold. Ya these were rapid prototyped so I could have something in my hands and put on a motor. I always miss stuff when all I have to look at is a model on a screen.

Made a mockup fuel rail, (machined injector ports) to get some dimensions and see what it would look like. Transferred this into solidworks and made the fuel rail bracket. Fuel rails will obviously be made with the flanges since this bolt-on aftermarket setups wont work. Made to work with off the shelf 60mm x 14mm injectors.

Here's my new welded up and then machined coolant overflow. Did this to make it look like one solid piece of material. Then have a 1/4" stainless hard line I bent flared from my turbo coolant reservoir to the new coolant overflow.

On your coolant overflow tank.
Do you have a way to vent pressure as it fills up?
Is there a suction line that goes near the bottom of the tank? Within 1/4 inch from the bottom so you don't suck air back into the coolant system.
