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

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.
