4age inlet manifold help Bogg Bros
Hi all, I am currently trying to install a Toyota 4age into a 1973 mg midget. I purchased a set of r1 carbs to use with the engine, however I need an
inlet manifold made up. I know Bogg Bros does this, but I can't seem to find an email address for them. I am in the states so calling is a bit
problematic as by the time I get off work it's to late to call the UK. Does anyone have their email or know of a way I can contact them? Do they
post on this site? Also anyone have an idea of what the manifold would cost? Thanks in advance.

^^ yeah, but the contact us page doesn't have an e-mail address 
they do make very nice manifolds (I've got one myself ) and they are very helpful
but I'm not sure just how good they are with computers - so your probably better phoning....
alternatively FASTdan on this site also sells manifolds and DIY kits - do a search for his user name on here and you'll find the links

Being a little north of you in the same time zone, set your alarm clock for 04:00 and make the call then. If your real quiet the others in the hours
won't know what your up to.

Thanks for the advice guys. I didn't know there where other people that did the manifolds. To bad no one in the states has branched out into it.

It's just a couple of plates and some pipes. With the parts its going to connect to in front of him and a photo of what you want any competent
fabricator could make it up

You can do it quickly. You can do it cheap. You can do it right. – Pick any two.

I made one my self.
I had the flange cut using the gasket as a template and formed the ovals for the tubes in a vice!
Welded it all up and sprayed it in VHT.....it worked well

Hi Sean - As mentioned I can make you an aluminium 4AGE R1 manifold no problem, either the small or large port type.
I recall receiving an email for this application yesterday - if this was you, then I will reply ASAP, if not please email dan@danstengineering.co.uk.

4AGE in a Midget - great choice...I hope.
I'm fitting a 4AGE 16v with 4AGE 20V throttle bodies and I hope it will be running (but not on the road) this year. The manifold I picked up is
steel and not much different from the one that tul124 made and displayed in an post earlier.
Currently rebuilding the axle & front suspension etc then it will be sorting out the brakes. After that the exciting stuff will start when I can
drop the engine back in.
