Fox intake manifold & 10 days to a 272 cam

[jsoutherland16 at attbi.com (Jeff Southerland)]

I think the runners are longer, for a little more low end torque. I recently
picked up a DigiFox mani, but haven't cleaned and compared it to my stock
1.8 mani yet. IMO the Audi 4 cylinder manifold is better because it accepts
the larger TB and it is lighter than the VW mani. HTH
