Intake Manifold Options for the 1.6
So lately I've been searching around for alternatives to the OEM intake manifold for my 1.6. I had seen that FM/BEGI offered a replacement alternative for the 1.8, but nothing for the 1.6. Ebay offered a china-manifold that was a velocity stack very briefly, but that seemed to fade away. Is there any IM upgrade available for the 1.6? Has anyone retrofit a honda B series edelbrock manifold onto the 1.6?
There appears to be someone who did it to a 2002 head on plainmiata.com.

Runners were based on a few out on the market. It was an attempt to find a happy medium based on midrange and topend. I didn't want it biased towards either. Angle for direct flow, all transitions were matched, surface left rough for fuel atomization.
The volume was designed to be large so it could provide a nice area for the velocity stackish base plate to draw its air from.
It was also designed to allow for simpler IC piping with the V-mount, otherwise the throttle body would have been almost into the blowoff valve location.
