Hey Paul quick question for you. I Dont suppose you still have your old heat shields from your old low mount set up an feel like selling them at all. Ive got the other manifold made by Jason with the external gate added on, an was just looking through your old pics on how you managed to squeeze your cooler piping in there, An noticed you had some serious heat shielding there, To be honest i forget all about heat shielding and im half way through putting it all together Sorry to hassle you on here bud but your the only other person i know of that had one of these manifolds. Cheers Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Ive already got the bonnet heat shield bud. Yeah i got it 2nd hand mate but looks like brand new apparently only done 250ks. Nah its not heat wrapped either. Not high priority atm just put the new head on with external gate and turbo tonight, an the 'gate' wont fit with the standard fusebox . So looks like a trip to 12 volt customs for a hidden fusebox Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
