Manifold blanks

[Guy88]

Anyone know of anywhere that does them.

i am thinking of making my own manifolds for the V6

[Luke]

keep us updated - demon tweeks do them but i dont think they do 24v i was gonna make my own get some 75x10 bright bar and drill it out

[Luke]

how are you getting on with this

are the granada manifolds cast

[Guy88]

I have been thinking about adapting the originals but i believe there cast

was also thinking about using some pipe and shaping it to weld to some box the right size. then milling out some 8mm flat and welding it to the box, mill it flat and see what happens

Dont no if it will last long thou

[Luke]

have you got the manifolds split email us some pics of the ports if you have

you can weld cast to mild but i dont think you will have to

[Luke]

this is your problem then do both exhausts foul the plate and how far out are they got any pics with the manifolds and plate fitted



i suppose cutting the flanges of the end of the existing manifolds and rewelding them at an angle is out of the question

[Guy88]

manifolds are off. will send you some pics

Would get one with the plate but its still holding my engine in

did look at cutting the manifolds fitting an angle piece and re welding the flanges.

I will have a go at adapting the originals. if not it will be box section and pipe

[Sundowner]

get some gaskets and have them profile cut on a plasma or flow jet

[Luke]

what about these



there not 24v cossy but gives the idea

they dont look too difficult to make - you can buy the bent tube and the 3-1 collecter piece. also note the jig there being set up on we could make one of those would be nice to have one (well 2) post it around the country for all the forum members who are doing 24v conversions

[Guy88]

They look good. Iv allready started on a jig like that
