Yeah, I know about the other manifold.... to lazy to track one down, and I'd heard the stocker was tight but do-able..

I may go for a header from Piers if money permits later on though...

There were lots of little cuts and bends needed to make everything fit, and it's not all done yet! Best to lay the the rad, the clip and the intercooler on the floor and then cut the clip to fit. My intercooler intakes had to be cut off and remounted at a slight angle to allow enough clearance for the hose between the rad and the intercooler intake.

If you want to see some pics... send me an email and I'll send you progress shots. I do have some detail shots of the mods to the front clip which will be helpful to you.

Make sure you check the firewall around the clutch master cylinder while the engine is out of the frame. My engine may have to come out again to fix the point where the firewall has started to come apart. I've got shots of this as well.

Onward!

Rob.
