I'll see if there are any other websites where people might want them - more I do, cheaper they should become.
I'm guessing postage won't be cheap but I'm in the North of Engalnd and regularly in the midlands too…

They will fit 895cc, 1049cc, 1272cc and even the Mk3 Golf 1.4 engines - all the same stud pattern. There is a slight difference in head deisgn between the water heated and exhaust heated inlet manifold cars but don't worry about it - I'll give you all the info you need on that.
Excellent, for the record, i've got the water cooled manifold.

If yours is exhaust heated - it isn't the end of the world - my first motor was and there are ways round it without having to resort to swapping heads.

Small blocks rule, i rebulit my carb recently, and rebuilt the head, after it went (winter last year), and last night set up the idle and the mixture (runnin a bit rich) :roll: , took it for a test drive so much better, much quicker, wind up the revs, and it really goes, really impressed with it
Ill have to think about this, though it's sounding good :wink:

Engine flange and 4 seperate runners? (for me, no DCOE flanges)
Does anyone know if I can use the injectors in my GSXR throttle bodies for something like megasquirt?

Steve, do you mean making something like this:
Engine flange and 4 seperate runners? (for me, no DCOE flanges)

same for me, got carbs.
yes you can use the gsxr injectors, make sure you have the mini loom to make wiring easier.
if you can get hold of a copy of practical performance car mag sept 05 their is a nice little piece on bike t/b's on car engines.
i'm working on finding a local supply of manifolds at the moment, i'll keep you all informed.
