Re: [Chrysler300] Intake Manifold

[Ray Jones <hurst300@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm guessing that the main reason for a single if it was available 
would be cost. 1 being cheaper than 2, size matters little, they all 
use the same parts pretty much.

Having the bosses for F.I. cast on the manifold may mean they plan to 
produce a F.I. unit in the future!
8 injectors, 2 fuel logs, electric fuel pump and regulator, an air flow 
meter that would hold the original air cleaner, a MAP sensor, and some 
weldable O2 ports and sensors for the exhausts. Of course, some wiring 
and the heart, a programable computer. These are infinitely tunable, 
and would be real fun to install. Sure wouldn't be boring-!!
