hodge112 Posted April 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2012 Bought a 4-2-1 manifold for the new engine last weekIt came with the small pipe welded on which goes to the airboxAs it's not needed and it looks neater without it, it was chopped off I also bought some black heatwrap for it, but I ran out before I'd managed to wrap the whole manifold so I don't have any pictures Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hodge112 Posted April 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2012 started stripping the engine today,gearbox, clutch and flywheel came off firstafter that was the inlet manifold, throttle body, injectors and most of the wiringnext plan is to get the bolts to get it in an engine stand, and start making progress to getting these fitted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
