Those are McKinny mounts. I powdercoated them black. They used to be red.
Update for today.
I finished up the plumbing under the intake manifold today.
The air chamber got an aluminum blanking plate installed. Those tubes were on the aft side of the airchamber and those are not going to be used. No power brakes.
I sealed the water tube openings that used to feed the oil/water heat exchanger by flattening the tubes and welding them shut. Best thing I could come up with at the time. Added a shot of paint to protact surface.
Here is everything back in place. Kind of busy in that area.
A little review. My best guess from what I have read and tried to figure out.
Here is the water system.
Red line is from rear of block going to heater. Purple line is back from heater and makes it's way back to water pump, by-passing the thermostat. This should heat up water quickly. Light blue line is cool water returning from radiator, waiting for thermostat to open. Yellow arrow is water out to radiator. Water can't flow until thermostat opens. Dark blue line is water flowing around head intake next to ITB's. It joins back up with green line which makes it back to water pump and also around the back of the engine over to the turbo's.
Here is the water for turbo cooling system. I think the flow changes direction with thermostat open.
Here is the vacuum system
The balance tube sits behind the Independent throttle bodies (ITB's). The green lines connect the air chamber to the balance tube. At idle, the air from the intake goes down dark blue line and is drawn through the AAC valve into the air chamber and then to the cylinders via the green lines and then the balance tube. In very cold conditions (-20C) air will also enter via the light blue line. This air regulator valve is partially hidden behind the air chamber. It closes at approx 60C. Red line is intake manifold reference pressure. This goes to the waste gate actuators, boost gauges etc. The air chamber has a few ports that can be used. These are almost always under vacuum relative to intake manifold, especially when you lift or close throttle. This is a good place to source the BOV and power brake vacuum, Anything downstream of ITB's is vacuum, upstream is boosted or pressure. Vacuum is relative and exists, even under boosted conditions. Balance tube has PCV valve for venting crankcase pressure back into intake. The thing to remember is that at power, above idle speed, all the air goes through the ITB's. Everything else is used for idle only.
OK back to assembly...
ITB's are next.
Intake went on next. Air chamber bolts to bottom.
View under manifold. everything was a good fit.
And that raps up this side. Still need to pick up some hose clamps, but that's about it.
Got the water lines back on this side. Maybe I should put some SS braided lines over here? I'll get the MAF's figured out first, then maybe some "bling".
It's starting to come together.
