Will do. Unless anybody had a better idea I think I'll put the two spare heads I have side by side on a bench and bolt the new 4-2-1 onto one and the traditional oe setup onto the other to compare. This could also be the easiest way of allowing the exhaust specialist to measure up too as there's a good chance they'll be unfamiliar with the modification specific to this setup.Pistol said
Keep us posted on the fit of the manifold once you get it all delivered. I am looking at their 16v conversion manifold for the next project resto, and will mate it up to the same 60mm system I have on the red one (and which you've just ordered!).

Morning Adi, I'm going to take the manifold to an exhaust specialist next week to get a price for the modification. Just to confirm, your guy to 10mm at the flange end off?adi3390 said
Looks right to me. Just bear in mind 60mm is a tight fit and that manifold will need modification for the extra room like mine
Otherwise exactly the same setup as I run!
If there wasn't the lockdown and you weren't so far I'd bring mine down so you could have a listen

Even after the 10mm increase in clearance I wanted to be doubly safe so wrapped the entire manifold as I really don't want to have any safety concerns or take it out again any time soon!
