Zetec exhaust manifold again
Im still looking for an exhaust manifold.
Is the westfield item any good ? its only £250 if price is still correct and looks well made.
Anybody elts recomended ?
tried the following
Mk only do made to measure ,(I havent built the chassis yet )nice guy tho.
Luego dont list one (ill have to ring back next week)
MNR well Chris has been the most helpfull so far. (best bet so far but............)
what other options ? Its one thing I cant make.I dont want a full race job but I do want a well made item for a fair price.
I want to get the engine running on my test trolly ,while I make chassis.

Is there a reason you need to get the engine running early?
I know it might be a long wait but if you can get it done once you have a rolling chassis you will get it to fit 100%. I took mine to be done at this
point and it meant it was made just as I wanted with the brackets where I needed them and took the guy 3hrs and cost £350, complete in stainless with
a repackable silencer.
Why not just get an old Ford exhaust manifold and cut a silncer off a car and rig up something basic if you really do need to get the engine running.

You need to know what triangulation your are planning too mate. If you get one and it goes through the chassis not the bonnet you will have problems.

It'll start without a manifold, just get some earplugs and don't do it when the kids are in bed. You could get a standard one from a
scrapyard and just stick a front pipe and silencer on it without forking out hundreds that will be sat doing nothing for years probably.

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.
