Richie-Van-GTi 74 2 Cars Posted July 2, 2007 oh yeah, fitting with the exhaust mani on is a pig, I discovered that today I whipped the mani off, balanced it down the back of the bay and then just pulled engine forwards and bolted it on after Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alastairh 47 Posted July 2, 2007 Mine slotted in fine with both manifolds! Had all the rad cowling removed etc. Just use a load leveler and you'll be fine Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
