As title... Apparently I will need manifolds soon, so if anyone has replaced theirs already and has the old ones sitting at the back of their shed can you let me know?

Any condition, I just need the dimensions without taking the current ones off for ages!

Why do you need the dimensions, are you looking at getting some made. If so keep us all posted as there may well be a group buy if the right material and cost?

Alas it's a bloke at work who does one-off stuff in his spare time. He does welding for prototype jag exhausts. I've not even asked him yet! Will let you know though.

I have a pair of as new manifolds, you could reinforce them as per the upgrade and bolt them straight on, would be more cost effective than making new ones from
scratch.
PM me if you are interested.

Ok thanks, I'll talk to my friend on Tuesday and send you a message. The only thing is my friend can do them in stainless steel. For cash.

As no-one else has asked I'm guessing the answer is 'yes' but here goes anyway:

Are they different to the 3 litre cars?
