word of warning st 170 manifold
tried doing my first winter upgrade today, fitting st170 manifold to 2.0l zetec, spent all afternoon trying different ideas to fit, not had any joy,
starter in the way for one of the exit pipes, engine mounting in way for other, (removed engine mounting) tried shortening the 4 primaryies, still no
joy, anyone fitted one to there locost?, looks like i should try focus manifold instead. eart 50 pounds this morning at work, looks like 50 pounds of
scrap at the mo, we all live and learn. any ideas guys, thanks Andy

Couple of us have fitted them into haynes roadsters, click
Someone else, extended the primaries over the top chassis rail?
How hard can it be?
