Title: Air Manifold
Post by: toolznthings on December 15, 2018, 10:05:43 PM

Hi All,

Nothing fancy, but needed to get a better setup than one hose like I had at the last NAMES show. Plan to attend again as an exhibitor this coming year and didn't want the 
inconvenience of one supply line for more than one engine. Besides I needed something to make.   ;D

Used a piece of 1 1/2" square tube x 3/16" wall with welded on end plates/legs. Drilled and tapped 1/8" & 1/4" NPT threads and mounted the valves and fittings to complete.
Another one off the to do list.   :)

I like it. Should work well too. Have you given it a try yet with multiple engines?

No, not yet. Should be enough volume to work o.k.
