Does anyone have a pic of their above manifold at all?? I am actually trying to figure out where to position my engine into my Tiger as i am planning on using the MK 4-2-1 manifold.

Cheers
Paul

Dont do it!

Well non until you have at least borrowed one because i mounted my R1 in an MK cradle in a GTS chassis with a MK exhaust and found i needed the whole system to be able to position the engine in the right place to allow my exhaust to look right.

Bit of a pain in the ass as i had to buy the whole system about 6 months before i actually needed it but it has saved a lot of hassle later on.

If i dont fit the engine and weld the brackets on i cant paint the chassis up at all. That obviously means i cant do anything on the car at all. I may actually trailer the car over to MK as the Tiger chassis is about 2" narrower right across the car, and looking at the propshaft angles i am going to need to fit the engine closer to the passenger side than in the MK by the looks of a few pics i have found anyway due to this.
