The circles on the side indicate where the runners will go.. 1 and 3 on one bank and 2 and 4 on the other, as you can see they are not paralell to eachother. This is to prevent air scavenging from the opposite bank..

The sides are square to ensure that the velocity stacks sit flush against the side.









my fav post from this thread still...cardboard manifold bathroom spec style
