Fitted new manifold today
« on: August 25, 2008, 10:05:13 PM »

Who said straight forward and 2 hours?  :shock:
  I was fuckin in bits. Try 6 hours for a dumbfuck like me. Cheated and went in the bottom. Even used the original gasket as it looked like new. Had to take out all sorts of stuff to make room(engine mount/brackets etc but its in.
  Drives 100% with no blowing or leaks.  
 
    Tin hat on ready for flak! :smt067
