I recently saw a new intake for the 351C which was a sidedraft type with Fuel Injection; does anyone know where to send questions or the website (I did not make the site a favorite when I was browsing)???????? John

If you find it, please post the URL. To my knowlege, there are no side-draft Weber intakes for the 351C. And since almost all TBI-type fuel injection units use the Weber patterns, no fuelies either. I've only ever seen one side draft 351C intake. It was a fabricated sheet-metal intake mounting Kinsler mechanical injection for a dirt track sprinter. Rumor has it that some small shop in Australia is casting up TBIs for the 351C, at enormous expense but I've not seen one.
John,
I'm starting on a project to build a custom cross draft (side draft?) EFI manifold. I don't know yet if it will be feasible due to the cost of machine work and some custom horizontal stacks. If you want to hear what I'm doing, email me, KenInSoCal@aol.com

Jack, I've got several pictures of the crossram EFI from Austrailia. Give me your e-mail address if you'd like me to send them to you. It's a beautiful piece!

How much $$$$$$$?
Nice job. Wonder whose injectors fit? They don't look like Ford....My guess is $3500 w/ aussie-made Haltek brainbox unless labor in Oz is much lower than the US.
WOW!!! Ya... I'd like to know how much too..

I've had my hands on that intake (actually a Chevy version, Mike had sold his 351C demo version). Mike Fielder imports these and said the cost for the intake alone (no elctronics, pump, wiring. etc.) is $4500. I was really surprised at the price because the Aussie exchange rate is very favorable for importing to the U.S. at the moment. The quality is very nice though.
