No, that wasn’t me...I had a pretty standard red one, the only thing I did to it was to replace the black fabric seats with red leather seats from a similar one (would have been mainly spotted down Easter Road/Leith way). Was not in the best nick when I eventually parted company with it...the guy I did sell it to hoped to return it to its former glory...but not sure if he managed to.

rThanks Pawcio I note that advise. Happy cooping.

Thanks Pete and Richard, I'll do that, sorry for my confusion. It's been a while.

Grigio buddy, thank you - I won't give up now. You saved my life ;-)

me going turbo way.... haha never

PS.. when I´m thinking about purchasing dead 20VT is only about to make 2.4 VIS atmo conversion with some standart tweaks (head, mild cams, raised compression etc..) for daily use.. 200-220 bhp with loads of linear torque from 2.4 with great sound...

something serious goin on
here







for expalnation..

I´m designing long 4-2-1 exhaust manifold for my engine
parameters:

44,5mm OD primaries ~650mm long (25.5")
50mm OD secondaries ~300mm long (11,8")
55mm to 60mm collector

I plan to make the headers by mysels during this winter..it will be from mandrel bent , mild steel bends, centerline radius R=100mm.

Its quite challenge to acomodate soo long primaries with this diameter in coupe engine bay.. as the original pipes has quite small diameter and they are too short - 450-500mm... its even more challange to fit e.g 4-1 manifold in the car like coupe due to clearance issues etc, so I looked around many competition cars -mainly S2000 ans S1600 clas rally cars...

as the template I used Orque (japan company) manifold for alfa romeo twinspark.. which looks that it could accomodate really long primaries into tight engine bay (in comaprison to rest of supplier, who makes and profits from enlarged copy of stock manifold..)
