prototyping a manifold for the T-3 that Mudbogger set me

this puts the carburetor 1/2" away from the Engine

Input needed

thanks Speed

Hi speedchaser. Looks great! That's good that it will use one of those easy to come by mikuni rubber carb adapters, very easy to change carb size.
I was wondering if you had any interest in making a manifold/adapter like this for a cr250M cylinder ? It's the cylinder that bolts on to the stock fl250 bottom end. The manifolds are not available from Honda and the only one available is a very expensive one some guy has Custom made on eBay. It's a very popular cylinder and has a lot of guys in ahrma using them. I'm sure there would be a market for them if it could be made cheaper. It would probably be simpler than this one there is only 4 bolts on the manifold since there is no reed cage ( piston port). Would you like some pics?

Speed, is the offset correct,the angle should go from the top down, not just 1 side as pictured.My stock intake is angled out on the top about 10 degrees, mabye 15-and tapers down to the the bottom of the intake, am I looking at this right?

did some machining today did this out of 1" thick cast aluminum plate
for a prototype this will be fine not as strong as 6061 tho

speed

next all done

last ones

Mudbogger can you see if the stock air box still fits with this new manifold

thanks
SpeedChaser

I sure will Speedchaser-I'll ask Hoser to install it on my motor (( Internal Combustion Engine ? )) he is doing for me, and I will also ask him to use the crank as well.I do have a stock air box waiting for this specific purpose-I'll need to heat the intake on it to accept the 38mm TM but we will see.THANKS SO SO MUCH for this and the crank rebuild Speedchaser, cannot thank you enough for the top notch craftmanship on these.I am really looking forward to the intake as there are not any choices for the 84/85 TECATE motors for intake, the MOSSBARGER 1 is not in anyway the correct intake as we all saw here, so it will really help me out on future projects!!!

Wow! Nice work. Any of you guys from 3wheelerworld? Some people on there would love to see this. Been a member there for 10 years. I miss my Tecate 3.

Was hoping guys from there would come here and look at the thread, SPEEDCHASER does some really nice work, and he also rebuilt my crank off my 85 t-3.
There is some guys here that are members at the 3 wheeler site, Nuke-em,Sunblock,just to name a couple.

Yeah. Just found my Old Tecate. Just waiting to sell this usless 1985 atc 250r. Ill never own another 250r EVER.Was thinking of getting into these pilots and oddys but my green machine is way better.

Speedchaser, I mounted the manifold tonight.It has a slight issue.One of the holes is too close to the alumn ans it does not sit flat on the manifold.Can I send it back to you for modifications please? I'll mark the hole on the manifold and send a bolt with it to you.

pic ?

Also have a crank I need rebuilt if you have the time as well please:)!!!!!

I'll get 1 right now!

OK well how did it fit can you see any other
modifications that need to be done


yes you can send back or grind that area a way
send me the the stock screw so next time I make one
I can up date the cad file to fit that screw

thanks Speed

Other then that slight mod it was a perfect fit Speed! I'll send it back just so you can set the cad for the right settings. Looks like the length is fine too as well!!!

Speedchaser you still have these pictures on your computer, can you email them to me please.

fixed now just get mud to fix his pic's

then delete the two posts

thanks speedchaser

Ok, now what about the same type manifold for the Pilot and Odyssey ?

first I need to make you a holding fixture for your lathe
