Alex Posted April 26, 2004 Share Posted April 26, 2004 Hmmmm, looking at the pic of the manifold. I'm under the impression its best to have a split in the manifold to head flange to allow for expansion. There doesn't appear to be one there! I wonder if it's a good idea to add one?? Care to comment Terry, CW, Dude? Also, Are the bolts on the manifold all the same size or staggered sizing? Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regards Tony Thats part of the engine breather system , its normally fed into a pipe in the system so all the crap gets sucked back in the engine to be burnt off , i have my doubts as to how well this will work , if i need to i'll weld a pipe onto the big intake pipe and feed it into there !!!! You also get one for the IAC valve with this kit , when i get my Manifold back ill post pics Dude:flame Dev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
