C20XE to R1 carb manifold
After my fiasco with the Turbo shop,I managed to get a cast manifold pretty impressed with it.There was no need to respace the carbs either and
because it is cast the transition is nice and smooth.

That looks great - my turbo shop manifold was crap as well.
How much was it?

Brilliant Dave, thanks for that....
I think I'll be going down the R1 + meajolt route, but it would be nice to get the whole thing running right first (see post in wanted
section!)

Have you managed to use it at all.

It would be usable but needs some finishing as it has the same steps between the inlet and the plate as yours does.
Given that it wasn't angled up it would have been a right pain to fit as well.
Buying a Bogg Bros one would have made my life much easier.
As it is I've had a go at making my own using the bike rubber inlets and a piece of Ali plate. It fits OK, but remains to be seen if it will
work as the inlets are very short.
Being short means that it fits nicely within the chassis though.
If it does work it will have cost £20.
