yeah same manifold. He needed my car in there to make the manifold and cooler pipes. This is how it sits on the car: Not much clearance but it clears it! Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Why would he have to mod it? No no other pics at the moment, you should have no issues with clearances though, mine all fit perfectly although I have no air conditioning either. It will be easier to mount everything if you have the engine out of the car, especially with the dump pipe and oil lines.

And Inlet manifold will have something done to it, at the moment just going to get it running, racing and sorted mechanically. Once we have all the bugs sorted out it will come back off the road, back into pieces then go for paint and panel before going back together again.

Certainly not TURBZ-6!! New plates will be seen first time it's racing. We're trying our hardest to get the Wagon done in time for Drag Nationals but looking at the time frame and budget it's looking less likely. Won't stop trying though!

There is a lot of work to do here in little time, but it should be OK as long as Charles has money for Scotch!
