Post subject:  Intake question

OK, I've seen the thread asking about which is the best intake to use for fuel injection. And I've read the DiBiase article on batch fire injection using GM electrical stuff.
I have on hand a couple of the aluminum 1-barrel intakes - both off 82 Dodge trucks. Would either of these be good for getting the drilling/machining done to install the screw in type injector bungs? Or should I look around for a cast iron intake?
Not planning on turbo or anything like that. Just want to improve driveability and pick up some mpg if I can.

I am sorry no one with knowledge of these manifolds has spoken up yet. It seems as if a one barrel might be a bit small unless you machine out it for a TB of some kind. I would assume you could machine it for an adapter of some kind, but you would have to make this custom, I think.

Also, some of the aluminum Mopar manifolds developed leaks. I don't know if these are among those. Maybe someone with specific knowledge will come forth. I used an Offenhauser manifold, which might be hard to find these days. See if you can get Clifford to respond. I understand they have been little slow lately. Also, look on e-bay and see if you can find an Offy manifold there.
