Default My custom Lada Niva 1600 Turbo Propane

Hi Everyone, I am in the process of doing a turbo propane Lada 1600 with lots of custom parts. One of them is my custom intake manifold.

Thanks for looking








Still in progress will post more pics soon

Nice Lada Niva - I owned one of those years ago - very capable 4x4 indeed. I like your project but i no nothing about propane powered vehicles. Please come back and explain a little more detail thank you. Looks incredibly interesting - keep up the good work.

What a pity in Australia we developed a local variant of these with Fuel Injection,Multipoint system running a haltech F3 Fuel only Engine management system,Still have the complete setup stashed in the back shed.
Guess it could have saved you a whole heap of Work.
