Very nice I'd love to get one of those air boxes. What foam are you using inside?
You need one of these to go with it now

Never used Vortz Cooper Formula R but this ones drilled and ported for smaller 1 1/4". Probably the only decent thing I own.

Re: Vortz air box - on at last 6 hrs later
OK that sounds good, I'm thinking about having a go at making a copy of the air box one day. I'll never be able to afford an original.
The manifold is really well made, I picked mine up at an auto jumble for 20 quid. Not knowing what it was at the time just thought it looks similar to the maniflow steel type in design and like it would work a lot better than the BMC type ever could. Wasn't until I researched it that I found it was rather special.

Re: Vortz air box - on at last 6 hrs later
I love the airbox and the rockercover
DOWNTON Mini is what I like a lot.
