I think it's great that Accuform has decided to chim into ClubCobra website. I know the GT40s Forum could also use information and a person for Q&A.

First, let me make it plain, I am not Accuform, I/we are Huddart Engines from the UK and we are the distributor for Accuform for all non USA / Canada sales for their Classic Injection kits.
However we have installed quite a few of these kits now and we have had a good input into the improvements that have/ are being made.
The manifolds for both the FE and SB Fords are new and improved, the old ones needed various minor machining jobs to fit properly. Extra vacuum ports have been added for things like IAC control, MAP sensors, brake booster etc, plus they will customise any manifold, something that just would not have been considered by the previous owners.
The FE manifold is available in both the original angled TB set up and now straight.
Similarly the SB can now be had angled.
A completely redesigned throttle linkage is now standard, previously balancing the TBs was a nightmare, involving slotting throttle linkage levers and other fun things, it could take all day. Now you just turn a screw. The throttle bodies did not line up with each other so nothing fitted properly. The old linkage was so bad that one side opened at a differant angle to the other.
The old throttle bodies were not assembled well and leaked a lot of air, Accuform now have a flow bench to individually check each one.
They are considering offering a 50mm version TB but I think that would depend on how much demand.
I seem to have gone on a bit much here but if anybody does need more info, please ask,
Mike
