I had some fun mounting the manifolds, and transfering some hardware.
This was so I could design my firewall and passenger footwell panels.

1. This is my greddy knockoff manifold. |
|

2. This is my stock manifold. |

3. Here they are next to each other. the new manifold is considerably smaller than the old one. |
|

4. Old manifold stripped of injectors. |

5. New manifold with injector bungs in. |
|

6. Old rail in place on new manifold. At this point it is not sitting flush and level. |

7. And here is why. This and another tab are in the way. |
|

8. I will have some cleaning up to do inside the manifold. |

9. Now with fuel rail sitting as it should. |
|

10. One tab I cut off. |

11. And the other. This tab ends up not being used at all. |
|

12. Manifold mounted to engine. |

13. Original cut was to fit original manifold, and even more would have to be cut now. |
|

14. Exhaust header/manifold in place.. |

15. This is a T3 from a Volvo. It will need to be clocked and modified a little. |
|

16. Oil drain pipe off. Mounted to my engine, this sits paralell to the ground. |

17. My turbo with the internal wastegate removed. |
|

18. Both sides set in place. You can see the turbo is just mocked into place. |

19. Turbo set in place and held with a bungee cord. |
|

20. Another angle. |

21. The exhaust will have to run here between the passenger compartment and the transmission |
The manifolds were put into place in order to see where the firewall and passenger foot wells can go.
More cutting and welding soon.
