I'm not new to rotaries, but i am new the peripheral port. I want to build a 12A Peripheral, i need some specs on the size should the intake holes be on the pport, and other things i should know. Also anyone got info on what type of carb i should use, i know weber is out of production and what type of intake manifold i should use?

sorry for so much questions and etc. i just need real facts on peripheral porting the 12A, before i do anything..

 

o yeah i've already read about Scalliwag post "how to build a pport housing" and it looks like i may need someone help me with the drilling(anyone got ideas?).

bump

 

yes
lol looks like what you've got so far is what i'd say. the RB intake manifold and those carbd are susposed to be great weber ida coppies

 

the RB manifold won't be much good as he's going PP

 

My buddy bought one from them for his p-port and he claimed that its not the same performance in comparison with the original IDA's. Anyways, the 48 ida's are back!!! do a search in this forum for european motorworks in Hawthorne cali. They sell the new IDA's for appx $700. Maybe they can get it ported to a 51; otherwise, there is another place in huntington beach ca that can do it.

 

If you can't find a peripheral manifold (espeially a 12A), I have a guy who makes all kinds of intake and exhaust manifolds for a fair price. The look like they came out of a CNC machine they are so nice.

PM me for details.

 

do you have a website i can see, because i'm trying piece my project together asap and be done by summer.
