I am rereading my Y block magazines and in issue 84 (Jan-Feb 2008) Ted Eaton mentions there are two designs of the Blue Thunder manifold versions 1 and 2. Version 2 may flow better than version 1 per Gary Burnette. Are there some visual ways to determine which one I have?? Bet I have version 1, I ordered it from John soon after they became available. Any indication of difference in percentages or more equal flow?
